Speaking of, here's a pic of Redhed from Vancouver Island on his way down to Ushuaia!

I stole it from his blog but he is an inmate here:

He's in Guatemala here but he's in Columbia now.

He just wrote me to say hi. I'm sure you've met him on one of the DSBC rides.
His blog:http://redhedsmototravels.blogspot.ca/
I don't think he's posting it here though.

Awesome Redhed!!!

Dave, you're running out of plastic on that thing!

Did you say that the Cee Bailey W/S from the old 800GS will not fit the 2013 GS? I have an 18" CB W/S that survived when I totaled my 09' F650GS and it appears that it will fit my new blue 800GS. Have not installed it yet, but holding it up to the bike it seems to fit.

we used the enhanced bracket with the shield and it did not fit...Cee Bailey confirmed that too....can't hurt to try...

O-Man · 11-27-2012, 07:21 PM

I didn't have the enhanced bracket on my F650, had 21000 miles and no problems without it. I'll try the W/S on the 800 later this week. Thanks for the info.

Hi,
First ever post here. Been searching forum for long, but never posted. Guess the logic way to start is with a photo of my ride, and introduce myself. My name is Miguel and live in Lisbon, Portugal. I've bought my motorcycle last year, so it´s a 2011 Sun Yellow F650 GS. I'm really, really, happy with her. It´s a great bike that takes me anywhere, urban, road, motorway or off-road (not that I've tried that much).
So here she is:

Have some experience in forum talk. Classic cars related foruns were basic school for me. I can even quote...

Much better than the OEM, but that's not too hard. More stability is what I noticed. I'm slightly big for the bike (180 cm), so TT windscreen doesn't do the job completely. It moved the turbulence higher, but for longer rides I'll need the deflector.
The seat is really bad. That in time will change also.
