The all rounder, BMW F 650 GS will be updated to a G 650 GS for this year, with simple and efficient characeristics at a competitive price.
A competitive advantage seems to have been gained through the fact that the single cylinder 650cc engine has been entirely manufactured in China – a common element to the entire G 650 X family.
It appears that given the strict quality control that BMW is famous for, the new engine still keeps to the quality levels of the previous version.
Four valves and direct injection have been maintained, along with an assembly chain in German style.
The bike is already available for 2009 and anticipates the spring arrival of new models F 650 GS and F 800 GS.
