The youngest in the BMW line-up. The G 650 GS is something but a cool enduro in the entry-mid level class. It's made for the guys who prefer budget machines even in the enduro class. Though it's powered by a 650cc engine, the heart has more than enough to pull out according to the hardest circumstances one has to face while enduring remotes. Yup! It's such a lovely piece of bi-wheeler if you don't have much to spend for a bigger priced machine.
