SOLD!

The 2003 BMW F650GS Dakar was sold on September 10. Though sad to have sold the bike I am happy to see it go to a good home and an owner that will take care of it and appreciate it the way that I have. More importantly, I think the new owner will put some real adventure miles on it, the kind of miles the bike is built for.

Questions of Interest

I’ve received several questions regarding the 2003 BMW F650GS Dakar over the past couple of days and am going to post them here so others will have access to the same information.

Q1) What is the status of the title?

A1) The title is clear, i.e., in my name and with no lien.

Q2) Is it currently registered? If yes, until when?

A2) The registration is current through July 2008.

Q3) Does it need any immediate maintenance or repair?

A3) All maintenance is current and the Dakar is in great condition.

Q4) Are you available to show it in the evenings during the week or anytime on the weekends?

A4) I am happy to arrange a time to show the Dakar that is convenient for both parties, please contact me to schedule an appointment.

Q5) Does the Touratech peg relocation kit change the riding position?

A5) Yes, the kit moves the pegs down and back a little to make it easier to stand when off-road. The result is a riding position that is extremely comfortable when on-road and that allows for loading the pegs for optimal cornering.

Q6) What forms of payment will you accept?

A6) I will accept cash or cashiers checks from a bank, I will not accept personal checks or PayPal.

Q7) Why are you selling the 2003 BMW F650GS Dakar?

A7) To be honest I am contemplating a Harley Davidson Nightster. I know it is a bit cliche (okay a lot cliche) but I've reached the point in my riding where comfortable cruising is more important than a great handling bike.

I will update this list with additional questions as they are received. Thank you all for your interest.

Right Side View of the Dakar

In this view you can see that the bike is very clean and in excellent condition. Notice that the fuel filler is below the passenger seat. This keep the center of gravity low on the 2003 BMW F650GS Dakar and provides better handling on- and off-road. This model year also has the classic BMW M color scheme in the checkered flag graphics, a homage to the head design in the single cylinder Rotax engine.

Left Side View of the Dakar

Here's the left side view of the 2003 BMW F650GS Dakar where you can see, among other items, the Cee Bailey 17 inch windscreen and the original BMW engine guards. The bike is on the side stand but if you look carefully you can see the center stand tucked underneath.
