F650 Mileage????
20 November 2009 - 4:52pm
So the F650 has been around for a while now. What I am wondering is what mileage have these bikes done.
Mine is a 2001 model (I bought it in 2003) and it is sitting on 67000km. No engine problems only the usual bearing stuff now and again.
So my question is what mileage does other people have on theirs????
Regards

2007 Model Dakar, just ticking over to 60,000 Km.
Replaced water pump seals and swing arm bearing and just had suspension overhauled by Martin Paetzold - bike feels new!
I'm thinking of selling it ... when it's done 200,000 km
