Nos

[timebombprod]

Forgive me, guys, but I'm completely uninformed about GS650s (as well as 550s). I just noticed the "G" in 650GL. Is this a shafty?

So I browse through the BikeBound article. Plenty of pics. 13. Not a one shows the left side clear enough to discern the final drive. Shafts are...not sporty (or attractive).

Point being, timebomb, there's a time and place for everything. Time and place for Nos is college parties.

Yeah shaftdrive and it had highway bars, also I guess it's considered a king and queen seat is what it had.

Apparently the L was for Low slider, or something close to that.


Atleast the maintenance is low!

BMW has made some very sporty shafties.

And one hell of a sportbike.

Yeah, though it holds no appeal to me.

Same, though very cool and fast, the power cant even be used on a normal road without a police chase being formed. I definitely can admire the craftsmanship.

More fun to go fast on a slow bike than go slow on a fast one!

Great video of that! Ninja 250 whooping the big supersports in the corners

I would not be happy being one of the guys on the bigger bikes lol

I've had my days with insane bikes (by far the most insane of which was a fully built GPz 750 Turbo with over 200 hp at the rear wheel; that thing scared me more times than I like to count). Nowadays, I am having a blast slowly and steadily tweaking this Sportster. Just got a set of cams for it, so a little more fun is in store-but nothing remotely crazy.

The best thing about harleys is howmuch you can modify them, and how readily available those parts are, you can probably literally build a whole complete engine out of aftermarket parts. Evo is a great engine, now if they can do something like buell again... a twin is a great engine for curvy roads, the powers always there.
