Stability on BMW F650 GS?
The BMW is anything but a GP bike, its an Enduro. These type of bikes are Paris-Dakar machines or very similar. Its not meant for the road really. I would say its 70:30 in favour of dirt by reading reviews.
Anyway, back to the question. With the ultra soft suspension and knobbly tires, long motorway journeys arent recommended.
There isnt much you can do about this i'm afraid, as your bikes habitat is primarily off-road.
I really dont understand why people here keep recommending smaller bikes. An Aprillia RS 250 would blow many bikes, much larger than itself, away easily. The F650 has a nice gentle acceleration curve, and good low speed stability. An ideal bike. You just need to ride to your machines strengths.
Good Luck.
Stability on BMW F650 GS?
this bike is definitely not a gp bike. i wonder what gave him that impression. like the guy above me said, this bike made for the dirt so you'll have to work with what you've got. not a bad bike tho. enjoy it and be safe
if you are a %26quot;novice%26quot; then you should not be riding a street legal GP bike
a larger winshield will not change the stability of the MC
the bike is as stable as the rider at the controls. if you think the bike is unstable then you need a smaller bike until your skills improve.
Ride safe; RIDE SMART;
keep the rubber down
