2007 BMW F 650GS Overview

BMW F 650GS is an enduro / off-road motorcycle, displacing 652 cc. Power comes from a Single cylinder engine, a compression ratio of 11.5:1. On the performance side, it delivers 37 kW @ 6500 rpm of peak power and 60 Nm @ 4800 rpm of torque. Top speed is factory-quoted at 183.4 km/h. On the road, the 2007 F 650GS tips the scales at 191 kg, carries a 17.3-litre fuel tank, offers a seat height of 780 mm and spans a 1479 mm wheelbase. That's roughly 21.7 kg heavier than the average enduro / off-road motorcycle in our database. The full 2007 BMW F 650GS spec sheet below covers every technical detail, from suspension travel to tyre sizes.

2007 BMW F 650GS compared with other bikes in the Enduro / Off-Road category

We checked the recorded figures for the 2007 BMW F 650GS against up to 1434 bikes in the Enduro / Off-Road category in our database, counting each model once at the model year nearest to this one.

Only 53 of the other 1145 bikes in the Enduro / Off-Road category have a lower seat height than the 780 mm of the F 650GS.
With 183 km/h, the F 650GS has the 112th highest top speed of 450 bikes in the Enduro / Off-Road category, 24% above the category average of 148 km/h.
Engine displacement of 652 cc is larger than that of 1058 of the other 1433 bikes in the Enduro / Off-Road category.
Narrowing the field to the 474 models within five model years of it, the seat height of 780 mm is lower than that of 435 of the other 473.

Versus the 2006 model

Compared with the 2006 model, wet weight fell from 192 kg to 191 kg (-1 kg). Peak power, peak torque, displacement, seat height and top speed are unchanged.

2007 F 650GS - Pros & Cons

Strengths

Strong power output: With 37 kW @ 6500 rpm and 60 Nm @ 4800 rpm of torque on tap, the F 650GS is no slouch for its class.
Fuel injection: Fuel injection means consistent cold starts and clean throttle response without the fussiness of a carbureted setup.
Strong front braking: Stopping power up front is strong thanks to the disc setup, with plenty of room to upgrade further with braided lines.

Considerations

Chain final drive upkeep: Budget time for routine chain maintenance - it's cheap to replace but needs consistent attention to avoid premature sprocket wear.

Wear Points & Servicing Notes

Cooling system servicing

F 650GS's Liquid cooled setup is low-maintenance provided the coolant interval is kept - old, acidic coolant is the main cause of long-term corrosion in the water passages.

Fuelling & injector care

The fuel injection on the F 650GS needs little beyond good fuel and periodic use of an injector-cleaner additive - no jetting or float-bowl maintenance to worry about.

Brake disc and pad wear

Braking up front comes from single ∅300mm disc, 2 piston caliper - solid stopping power, with disc and pad wear best checked on the same schedule as tyre changes.

Suspension condition on used examples

The F 650GS's suspension runs 41mm Telescopic fork with stabilizer bridge at the front. The rear uses Spring setting and rebound stage damping continuously adjustable. Fork-seal condition and rear linkage play are the two things worth checking before buying used.

Final drive maintenance

The F 650GS uses chain final drive, which is cheap to replace but needs regular cleaning, lubrication and tension checks to get a full service life out of the sprockets.

Frame & chassis check

Built around a Bridge-type steel section frame with bolted-on rear section, the F 650GS's chassis is straightforward to inspect: look for corrosion, cracks or repair welds around stress points like the head-stock and swingarm mounts.

F 650GS - Buying & Maintenance Guide

What to check before buying

Before handing over money for a used 2007 BMW F 650GS with its 652 cc enduro / off-road, cover the fundamentals: service book and oil change history, drivetrain wear, and any sign of oil weeping around the casings. This model runs chain final drive, so check chain slack and sprocket tooth profile specifically - a worn sprocket is a cheaper fix now than after it's chewed up the next chain. Now 19 years old, this enduro / off-road is as likely to show age-related wear (perished rubber, seized fasteners, degraded seals) as mileage-related wear. Cold-starting it yourself tells you a lot - a healthy F 650GS should catch quickly and settle into a smooth idle.

Oil and filter changes

Nothing protects the F 650GS's 652 cc single cylinder like disciplined oil changes - stay on the manufacturer's schedule (roughly every 6,000 km or annually). The sump holds 2.3 litres with filter change, so budget for that volume of quality motorcycle-specific engine oil. With an 11.5:1 compression ratio, running the octane grade specified in the manual matters more than on a lower-compression engine. Match the viscosity grade to what the owner's manual specifies, not what's cheapest.

Fuel system care

Fuel injection on the F 650GS needs little attention beyond decent fuel and an occasional system-cleaner additive. Anything left standing for three months or more should have its fuel drained and replaced before it varnishes the injectors.
