BMW's profilation of this bike
The stunning new F 650 GS Special Edition combines the boldness of the Sun Yellow with a subtle Black Silk Gloss to give the F 650 GS its best look yet. The superb entry level model still has the low seat height and excellent economy you would expect from an F 650 GS but now with options to improve its already brilliant touring ability fitted as standard.
