F650 IS NO MORE?

[Nippy Norman]

Apologies if you have seen these images before, but here are pictures of the replacement engine for the F650 successor - the K600ST/GS. BMW are really going for it at the moment.
No idea of the release date, but dealers do have a slot reserved for the Autumn, so you never know - it might be this year.
Could be a great bike.
No power figures yet...

Hadn't seem these before

I think its a biy odd that BMW are making a trail bike that revs to 11,500...!!!

Should be interesting....pity though as the F650GS is such a good bike now.

Hmmm - XTZ750, Tdm 850 type engine ???

Is that half of a K12S engine?

 

[Nippy Norman]

K600S

I should imagine so - therefore look out for a K1200GS sometime soon!

I was hoping for a v-twin, not a poxy, vibey, parallel twin! Also I was expecting a boost in cc's, not a drop!
