Default Re: Anyone on here got/been on a BMW F650 GS/Dakar

They're good bikes, perhaps not very inspiring performance wise but perfectly useful all the same, handling and brakes are good, comfy too, later ones good build quality, early ones were made by Aprilia and whilst they worked fine could look a bit poor quite easily, those ones are less common now of course. Overall good fun.
