Just finished restoring an identical 98. I had the same 99 when I was in my mid 20s. Rode it across Canada at one point. Great solid reliable bike. Simple to work on and it’s very versatile. Real mutt of a bike. Engine by Austria with some design changes by BMW. Assembled in Italy by Aprilia with lots of Italian made parts on it. And designed by BMW. Only weak points are a water pump that needs shaft and seal replacement every 50k or so depending on the bike and your coolant maintenance. And the voltage rectifiers liked to fail. The fix for that is a cheap eBay used rectifier from the newer BMW F650GS. Did that to mine and it charges perfectly.
Had two of these decent little bikes and they have gone up in value to
I just bought this bike with only 5000 km (3106 Miles). The previous owner bought it in 1997 and never rode it. Has always been inside so no rust. nothing. Bike looks brand new. Very happy with the 650
I love this bike,
Got any pictures on instagram?
@@niubeats3464 yes it is called Phil_Funduro
Your dash looks the same as my 1998 f650, do you have a low fuel light?
Are the grips original? They're identical to the one I have on my vf500
I had a 2005 model year that I sold recently it was a great bike miss that thing
2005? They made them until 2000
Very sharp looking bike. Gorgeous des paint job. For being 24 years old, it's mileage that you mentioned, is next to none. Literally; looks like a brand new bike, fresh out of the crate. The fact that it has 30 more horsepower than a KLR 650, and also an XR 650, tells you that bike has quite a bit of power. 30 more hp, makes a big. Difference. I saw Junior pass by, riding a wheelie on his Sure Ron Bike. 😂😂
Like 10hp more 50

Dakar Rally Winner? BMW F 650? man.....
Richard Sainct's F 650 rr won in 2000 Dakar...
Yes 1999 or 2000. Not sure.
front end reminds me of kawasaki versys but good looking haha
That's one sharp looking bike. Beautiful paint job. For being a 24 year old bike, it was very well kept, and with the very low mileage on it, having already been broken in, that bike has so much life left to it. I saw Jr. ride by, doing a wheelie, on his Suron Bike, in the beginning! 🤣🤣
👌🥂
Ready to go cross country on or off road!
Is it one cyl rotx
Yes, I believe it is a Rotax.
Christ did it really win a Dakar rally? They were nasty bikes to ride
Yes
Bmw f650st!
built and assembled in Italy by Aprilia
I thought they were designed and built in Germany? Did BMW move? Lol
@@sonnyseabury4051 F650 has not even an bmw engine, the engines are from the Austrian company Rotax.
@Fritz Oh OK. Thanks Brother. I had no clue.
Anyone wanna trade? Got a 1979 honda cx 500 custom in good shape.
I would trade my '97 F650 with 16k miles for a cx500 anytime. But I'm in Germany and cx 500 are rare here.
@@Whiteknuckle157 Yeah, that might cost a lot to ship! Lmao
