My wench soon to be a tosser

Looks like we will have another girly joining the fold.

Just done a deal on a f 650 GS . Seems a lovely little thing, full main dealer history, panniers, heated grips , hand guards, scottoiler but most importantly for her it's factory lowered.
The bike has done a few more miles than I usually buy them, with 21k showing. These little twins seem to be quite a strong bike ( correct me if I'm wrong ). Before I part with the cash , has anyone one here any advice they can offer as regards any weak spots to check on

My missus has a bike the same as that your one. 27K no problems. I put a different zorst system on it...breaths a lot better. Cracking bike, I quite like taking it for a 'test ride' after I do anything to it.....

We bought Denise's with 23k on it, super little bike!
Only issue we've had was the stator was fried ( took us a while to work it out) which gave us some charging issues. Fixed that and it's been brilliant.

Julie has had one since 2001 lowered. Just had some TLC at Mikeyboys , new wilbers and a bit of powder coating. She is so pleased with it even more so now.

Picked the little 650 up from the dealers today and rode it home over the M62.

First impressions,.... what a cracking little bike, good fun, so easy to ride and far quicker than I would ever have imagined.

Cracking bikes, I test rode one many years ago & got quite a surprise.
Will you be able to keep up with her?

Pal of mine has just bought a 61 plare GSA, cracking bike.

Loving my GS ,do wish I'd have bought a GSA though.

Sheralee now a proud owner now too, hopefully Mr B will allow her on some hoons through summer?
