BMW F650 funduro first start after 5 years PART 1

[@Sir_Chuckmyster]

Beautiful. I also have the same BMW FS650 Funduro 1998 in my garage that I have not started since 2015 🙃 Brilliant motors, I believe it is a Rotax that was used in microlights back in the day. Bullet proof. Mine has 150 000km on the clock. The last time I rode it was back from Grahamstown to Somerset West overnight for 12 hours, felt like I was sitting in my lounge seat, very comfortable seat

I agree it’s definitely a comfortable bike to ride.

That's an ST Strada. 18" front wheel as opposed to 19" on Funduro. Several other parts differ too.

I had to double check the specs and you are correct having the 18 inch front wheel it would be the strada. Yet here in South Africa they were always marketed as the Funduro. I never knew about the Strada until getting onto the 650 forums 👍
