The thread has gone full circle and disappeared in its own crap

Ted,
As quastdog mentioned, why should they bother with such preconceptions?
I did have some hopes that this thread could bring some objective feedback on the topic, but I have now given up on that aspiration. As a contrast, there is a KTM thread that is streets ahead of this one in meeting this aim, for the 640 Adv:-
http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hub...lems-list-9345
It contains information from those who own, or have owned, these bikes, unlike the majority of posts on this thread.
Regrettably, I think that this "crap" thread has missed the chance - it needs to lie fallow (die in the ditch basically) and, in due course, some more structured, objective feedback may be available:-
http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hub...-threads-33390
IMO, this development will be quite important for the HU webpages: hopefully it will succeed.
For specific information about the F650 you could do worse than go to the chain gang (as referenced in an earlier post) or the UK equivalent:-
BMW F650 (UK)
Both of these have contributions from actual owners (or they are all bluffing!).
Lastly, while all the BMW F650GSs in South America are breaking down and providing grief for their owners, in the rest of the world they are doing just fine:-
Adventure.gs - The very best experience in motorcycling training and touring.
Just one more example of a real owner with specific feedback on his bike.
I hope those links help your mate to make up his mind.
