My dad is selling his 2005 F650GS Dakar: Bike is accident free and well looked after. My dad is the second owner and bought the bike with 6 000km on the clock. Currently at 35 770km, full service history (only last one not with BMW). Last service (30k) was done on 28 555km where the chain and...

Hey guys, Pre-covid they used to sell these at petrol stations (very annoyingly...).  They usually had a "today only" buy one get one free deal.  A friend gave his free one to me and I must say it is quite a decent product. Does anyone know where I can buy this from?  Or is there maybe a...

This question has probably been asked and answered before, but a search did not turn up anything. I have a 110 front that most probably came off a 1200GS.  Will it work on my 650? Obviously just fitted with a tube. Your advice would be appreciated! Sent via Tapatalk

I am in the market for a 'smart charger'.  Optimate 4 seems to fit my pocket best.  Will I be able to use this charger on a car battery as well?  I know that it will struggle resurrecting a completely dead car battery, but will is suffice as a battery 'conditioner'/trickle charger for a car...

EDIT - MODS PLEASE MOVE TO CORRECT BOARD! Ok, so I bought this watch off another wilddog Strompie - https://wilddog.net.za/forum/index.php?topic=241783.0 I am now re-selling it. Why you may ask? Herewith my review: - Battery life is phenomenal (as all reviews will tell you and which is the...

Got this charger with my 650 when I bought it.  Cannot find any information on it when searching the web. Is there someone who can enlighten me? Is it a trickle charger? What do the LED's tell me? Thank you in advance.

Hi again Dogs, My cousin is also selling her bike, details as follows: - Honda CRF230F - 2007 model - Road worthy and licenced (not many of those around!) - hand guards - New rear tyre She's the second owner. She bought the bike with a bicycle speedometer fitted, which apparently is...

As the subject states - I've fitted a dakar screen to my standard single cylinder F650GS.  I am looking for an aerotrim type spoiler to fit said screen (see picture for reference), taking the 'lip' of the screen into account.  Anyone know of such a spoiler that would fit? Thanks,

Good day fellow dogs. I know some of you don't like this, but this thread is going to serve as a 'feeler' as I want to find out if there is interest and whether or not it will be worth while for me to sell... I have a 1981 model Honda CX500 which I bought twice from the same owner  :biggrin: ...

As per the subject - what's your opinion?  I want an all-rounder, winter and summer.  Price looks good, but I have no experience with the brand.

I'm sure I can just use the search function, but making a new post is usually easier and faster... Are there any George dogs that do leasurely rides/breakfast runs on Saturday and/or Sunday mornings, on either tar or gravel, who would not mind me tagging along?

Anybody know of a place?  Still have not recovered my 650's seat.  Needs to be as close to original fabric as possible.

Found this on the interwebs earlier.  Apologies if it's been posted already... EDIT:  Realized it probably just dug itself in?  Looks weird though!

Hi guys.  After me and my father's trip to Williston earlier this year I noticed that my rear brake seems to be a bit 'softer', meaning you have to depress it further before it starts braking.  This didn't bother too much until I noticed the problem with the ABS.  It seems that the 'pulsing'...

I am not getting a definitive answer from my searches...  Is there a place in the Western Cape (or Cape Town) that can recover my 650's seat with a material as close to the original as possible?  No modifications, just a new cover.  Mine has some unexplained cracks in it and has become very hard...

Seeing that handguards gets scratched so easily when you have a small 'incident', do you guys think one can wrap them with vinyl (like the kind you can wrap body panels etc. with)?  Would be way more cost-effective to just replace the wrap than the handguards.  Has anyone done this?  

Storie hier: https://wilddog.net.za/forum/index.php?topic=95295 Het hom Donderdag gaan haal op Reebok.  Ry nog nes ek onthou - 'not missing a beat'! Baie happy, gaan nou met die tyd van ak die korrosie ontlae raak.

First a bit of history: This is the second time that this bike is in our family.  In 2003/4 (I think) my dad bought this bike from an acquaintance.  Then, in 2007 he got his dakar and the CX basically became mine.  In 2008 the previous owner calls my dad and tells him that he wants to ride bike...

And I quite enjoyed it!  Nice for commuting and probably some touring, but personally I would not try taking it off-road. - obvious reasons would be the mag wheels and the suspension, which is quite firm.   Although this one wasn't even yet run-in, the power delivery from the twin was good and...

On my standard F650GS I sometimes experience a 'headshake' when going over a series of bumps/holes/ruts on a gravel road. Now, as most of us know, the 650 has 2 ways of adjusting the rear suspension.  The one is the black knob on the side with which you only set the height (according to the...
