Actually, I'm borrowing the dealer's F700 while my bike is having a new tyre fitted. (But now I get to test the bike till tomorrow!) First impression is quite good. Very much like the F650, though despite the supposed extra power, the delivery is different - feels like there's less torque early...

Crikey, I'm full of questions tonight, even if this is an old hoary one...:big grin: I've clocked just over 5k in the last 5 months and have noticed that the existing Tourance tyres are looking like they won't go more than 2-3k and they seem to have lost the 100% confidence in the wet edge...

Hi all, Can anyone please tell me there experience's with the Scottoiler system. As I have a chain driven machine now I'm thinking of buying the Scottoiler to basically make my life easier! Paul

Hi, I got the pleasure of borrowing a BMW F650GS for the day and loved it. Have put the review on my site. Just a couple of niggles for me - I found the seat a bit on the small side and also found the side-stand a bit awkward to coerce out from under the bike. I was wondering if there was...

There's an interesting overview of the F650 in th back of this month's 'BIKE' mag. I'm not sure they have all the info right but it's an slightly interesting read for anyone thinking of buying a used F650. It's full of the usual 'ideal for commuters and ladies' cliches but neglects to mention...

I know a few people have been discussing screens on the forum, so just thought I'd stick my oar in..... :whistle: I use my CS to commute to work - 40 miles each way, 38 miles dual or motorway work. I bought the bike two weeks before passing my test never having ridden one. The ride to work is...
