650GS twin front suspension travel ?

[nicebike]

Does anyone know how much clearance there is between the front mudguard and the beak when the front suspension is fully compressed ?

I am not heavy enough to achieve full compression, and I don't know how far up the forks slide, so can't calculate the clearance.

Thank you.

Thats an easy formula, (on centrestand and someone leaning on the rear rack) measure the clearance in question then subtract the front fork travel dimension BMW specification, = answer


Oh, Happy new year

Thanks Dean - that would be my methodology also, IF I could find out the spec for fork travel

Any ideas on where to look?
