Engine Code:
Rotax 48x4 (commonly used designation)
Displacement:
652 cc (Cubic Centimeters)
Configuration:
Single-cylinder, four-stroke (Note: While some F650GS models used a Rotax parallel-twin, the 2000-2007 commonly refers to the single-cylinder Rotax engine. The product description implies a single engine. Clarification might be needed if it covers multiple engine types within the F650GS range for these years.)
Bore X Stroke:
100 mm x 83 mm (approximate for single-cylinder)
Compression Ratio:
10.0:1 (typical)
Horsepower:
Approx. 50 HP @ 6500 RPM (This is a typical figure for this engine)
Torque:
Approx. 62 Nm (46 lb-ft) @ 5000 RPM (This is a typical figure for this engine)
Fuel Delivery:
Fuel Injection (EFI) for most models in this range, though early models might have had carburetors. Manual covers Fuel Preparation and Control.
Fuel Type:
Unleaded gasoline
Oil Type Specification:
API SG/SH or JASO MA certified motorcycle oil, viscosity typically 10W-40 or 20W-50 depending on climate. Manual covers 'which engine oil'.
Cooling System:
Liquid-cooled
Oil Change Interval:
Typically every 6,000-10,000 km (3,700-6,200 miles) or annually, whichever comes first. Check manual for exact schedule.
Valve Clearance Interval:
Typically checked at 10,000-20,000 km (6,200-12,400 miles). Manual specifies 'valve clearance'.
Coolant Change Interval:
Refer to manual for specific coolant flush and replacement intervals.
Coolant Type:
Ethylene glycol based coolant, BMW recommends specific mixtures. Manual covers 'change coolant'.
Transmission Fluid:
Lubricant for gearbox is typically API GL-4 or GL-5 gear oil (specific viscosity to be confirmed in manual).
Common Problems:
Stator failure (common on many BMW models of this era), fuel pump issues, regulator/rectifier problems, occasional water pump seal leaks, starter motor issues. Manual covers 'problems', 'troubleshoot'.
Specifications:
Manual includes torque specifications ('torque specs') for critical fasteners such as cylinder head, wheel nuts, brake caliper bolts, etc.
Manufacturer:
Bayerische Motoren Werke AG (BMW)
F650Gs Lineage:
The F650GS (single-cylinder) platform, often dubbed the 'Funduro', was developed by BMW in conjunction with Rotax. It was designed as an accessible, versatile dual-purpose motorcycle.
Assembly Location:
Germany (engine by Rotax in Austria, assembly by BMW)
