BMW 650 Dakar
Seven weeks ago I brought a 2000 BMW F650GS Dakar. 73,000 kilometres maybe and I’m the tenth owner. It was tired, many bad repairs/bodges and in serious need of a major overhaul. Been on it pretty much everyday since finding parts having bits made and repairing the bits that aren’t available. Lots of new stuff from BMW khonkaen new and second bits from Motorworks in the UK and eBay. Colour scheme well kept it simple with the 1980’s Paris Dakar sponsors, both of which were very close to my heart whilst growing up in fact still are. I will run it in over the next few days then next week I’m off to Lao on tour.

Looks great mate who would have thought that bike we collected a few weeks ago would turn out like this.

Excellent job.
