I had some stickers made by Liam (Worzel Gummidge) for my R1100R as the genuine ones are very expensive. I have one in the pictures area on the site. The one on the right was the original sticker. So if you require any stickers for your BMW I have to say that he is the right person to make them...

HI i am new to the forum and the Bmw biking community and already need advice on how to set the timing for my bike its a 1998 F650 twin spark plug engine , i have had to change the cylinder head on it because one of my exhaust bolts got stuck and snapped off inside the head so was wondering...

I have just had my first decent ride on my 2005 GS and really enjoyed it. I have a queery! Did BMW make the single with a low seat? I found that it was quite easy to touch the foot down on corners, and although my bike is fitted with a gel seat, at 5'7" my feet are flat on the floor, and I feel...

i have just sold my blackbird after 12 years and still have a WR450 for greenlane use. after looking around the bmw 650 seems a good bet for my next toy. it will be used for two up sightseeing when away on hols (but travel there in the van. and hopefully some mild greenlane use. after...

Hi all, Never had a single but quite fancy an F650. Please could someone advise what the differences are between models? I've seen GS / Dakar / Funduro / CS all mentioned and don't really know what each is like. Thanks. I'd be looking for it as a second bike to my R1200RT, so it would be a...

Hi guys! Can anyone point me in the direction of a place to buy my F650GS 06 twin spark a fuel filter? I have only found motorworks selling them and at 60 odd quid. I know they have regulators in them too and they will cost about that but is there any cheaper places or options? I also read...

What would the estimated cost be to lower the suspension of a 2007 F650GS? A local dealer told me they done one and BMW price was £500. I am sure this can be done cheaper.

BMW F650 GS DAKAR - Twin Spark model SOLD

this seems to be a very common problem, people see what a good forum this is, sign up, and post questions and more often than not, they havent put their bike model/age in their info bit - this is not a blame thing, just an observation. can it not be made compulsory when you are signing up that...

Hi, I'm thinking of buying a f650 (1997). How do i know which model it is? I want to check it is the 48 bhp version Not the 34 bhp version. Thanks, Nick. :?

Hi, Just staggered into the local Aldi do get some cheap Vodka and hang out with other skinflints. Bugger me if they didn't have some 1:12th scale die cast models of The F650GS for under a fiver. It will look good amonst all the china fancy stuff that the Missus fills the house with. :big...

I have a problem which I hope others out there could give me some advice about. After I collected my bike from a BMW service in December I became aware of a slight wobble at slow speeds. It caused me to slip from my bike on a icy road marking in Bath a couple of weeks later. £150 later on...

1977 Bultaco Metralla GTS 250 - 6 speed

:uhoh: Contrary to popular belief and what has been printed in MCN, I have it on good authority today from the Southern Regional Manager at BMW (through SPC BMW) that there are no plans for an 800GS model. Currently, BMW have a lightweight enduro model in the 650, and top end models in the...

I happened to be in Woolies this morning when I spotted something in the toy section. A set of four motorbikes made by Chad Valley in their 'Super Bikes' series, which included an orange Scarver. Of course I had to buy it - only ?5.99 for the set of four! They're about 1:20 scale and not bad...

Picked up the latest MCN and on page 5 there is a little bit on the F650. Does anyone know if is going to be replaced or is it just going to get a facelift so to speak. The article also mentions a 650 twin. Anyone have any info or pics? If the F650GS is going to be replaced I might have to...

Hi chaps I've got some Mobil Racing 4T 15w50 fully synthetic oil that I use in another bike I've got. Any views on using it in my 13,000 mile GS Dakar? Thanks in advance. Jon

Im contemplating purchasing an unregistered cs from my local dealer. It has been in the showroom at least since October, and is therefore an 04 model year bike. I dont like the dark blue colour , so have asked dealer to price in the swap of my graphite grey panels from my 03 cs , which I...

Hello Well it seems odd now, a few years back I had been looking at buying myself a nice BMW bike. I didn't. Then I watched Long Way Round and have ended up looking again. But I am getting a little bit confused and would like someone more in the know than I - ie, anyone. to assist me...
