Let's see your F650GS pics!

Thought I would post a couple of pics for my GF(GSACHIC). Her bike is no "StarBucks" bike, it's used as an adventure bike !

In it's element:



With rider; note the dust:

you can see the tree that the Dakar took down

Hi Flag GS - A couple of those pics looked like you were heading south from Jacobs Lake into the North Rim area. That is one of the places I'd like to ride. Have you taken the forest service road out to Fire Point? I'm from Flagstaff and am planning some riding up that way this summer. Just bought a 2003 F650GS Dakar. How did your wife like it? Doesn't look like you had it very long - did she upgrade to a larger bike? Just getting into Adventure riding and I can't wait to go on a couple of cool camping trips.

Far as mods go, I've done:
Touratech crashbars for engine & faring, Touratech tankbag, Swanky TT GPS mount for my old Garmin III, SU's and tailrack from Happy Trails, (not pictured) Targhee CC Panniers from HT, Heated Grips, Bigfoot on the kickstand (stupid thing is always dragging)
Still To Do:
Centerstand, Bar Riser, Maybe the tall seat from TT...haven't made up my mind yet.

This one came in the mail last week



in a cardboard box

The way he is running, looks like he hit the self destruct button!

Ok, the one I posted a few days ago was a model. Kindof a joke on a buddy of mine. This one is real and I picked it up at the dealer today, mounted the touratech panniers when I got home with it

After lamenting for months about how frikkin' heavy my f650 is I just saw the striking viking's multimedia presentation at a local BMW dealer and was inspired all over again in this bike. His Dakar was over 600lbs with all the gear and the TT 10 gallon tank but he still rode that thing through more gnarly sh1t than I have ever done.

Maybe I should stop complaining so much and just ride



Thinking it might be time for ohlins soon, tho'

Nothing like ATGATT!

thats just wrong

Hi !

This are some pictures i`ve made on my way from work :)

Here is a picture of my 2004 after I finished modifying it this past winter.

New Knobbies mounted up.....
Mods so far.....
TT chainguard
TT rear disk guard
Centerstand
TT front chain guard

Wow, what a differance the knobbies make in the dirt! It almost feels like a dirtbike, then you have to pick it up .

Quasi....suhweeet

Whoo hoooo! Nice Bike. I like the paint job too.

Quasi, how about telling the story of this winters mods on that F650.

Quite right, the 650GS has got to be one of the most under-rated bikes around at the moment. Mostly, those with an opinion of how un-capable or "lady-like" they are have neither owned nor actually ridden one. Me, I just enjoy getting out and about on mine.....



....and to anyone who still thinks it not capable!!
