So in total you need to go to a bmw dealer and do the updates. 2 in total I have done the first 2 years of ownership. After the 2 updates you ll riding a different machine...(solves many other issues like no power on mid revs e.tc)

  • @captlarry-3525

    This procedure is described in the owner's manual for G650gs.. When I start, hands off the throttle, count 1-2-3 holding down the starter button, then release. Idle should be 1500. If it is, you're good. Note the idle will be higher 1750 if you skip the 123...and then you know you did it wrong.

    @dieselbit5856 2 місяці тому

    Can confirm the hot restart issue with the F650GS model around year 2000. Not all have the issue (owned 2 the same f650gs). Only happens on hot restart. For me it helps to just let the bike sit for approx 5+ seconds after ignition on to let the bikes MMS intialize. Then restart. Restart fail gone. The other slightly different problem variant is when it happens to restart without the 5+ sec initialize wait. It won't run idle, just dies unless the gas is kept at around 1500+ rpm. The one f650gs that has this problem also had significant more torque 😮 compared to the other I owner at the same time. Never figured out whyv exactly. Without owning 2 F650s GS at the same time I would never have noticed the torque difference. Guessed the MMS firmware has a different fuel curve.

    Watched out of curiosity, cause I own the same bike, but never had stall issues (owner from 2006 130k km in the clock). Right from the start I got used to hold on to the starter button for longer in order for the bike to start, cause otherwise it often failed to start, so maybe that is why I never had such an issue.

    • @tugainswitzerland
      @tugainswitzerland 3 місяці тому

      I'm not the best person to answer that question... that beeing said, rain is annoying. That's no way around that. The question is... do you need to... do you have to ride in the rain? (for exemple, I don't) if the answer is yes you have good solutions. Gear that help you to stay dry and warm, and a wide range of tyres that are pretty good in the rain. Good gear, good tyres and don't overthink. Like I just did😂😂

    The same happens very often with G650x models. I tried to hold on to starter button as you say on my g650xCh but it doesn’t work. I just spend a little time after starting the engine to let it warm up with the help of turning the throttle sligthy after about 15 seconds from startup. Seems like the ECU is trying to switch to ‚normal’ running mode but has issues with it before reaching engine temps that are programmed.

      Hi .I have a 2005 f650gs. I live a small town ,so I do a lot short and slow trips every day. I confuses the ecu . What I have learnt is the problem gets a lot worse if I assist / touch the throttle when starting the bike. It’s sets the zero in the wrong place and stalls in the first corner I go slow . So I always try to just no touch anything and let it start. Also turn everything off , turn the key on ,let it arm and then slowly twist the grip to full throttle ( take about 3”) then release and then start the bike . It often resets the ecu. ( hope this makes sense)

    • @tugainswitzerland
      @tugainswitzerland 5 місяців тому

      Well... i wanted to travel by bike, so I thought about buying an ADV bike. But... I was not sure about doing a short test ride with the dealers and buy an Expensive ADV + extras. So I saw this bike for sale online. It had all the extras I would buy... so I bought it just to try and feel it. Two short trips to italy and france about 4 days each and 600 kms each... just to have a feel. I bought this bike just to see how I would feel with an ADV bike... man i'm preparing a new road trip to portugal with the same bike. 4000 kms total. So yeah... I think it's good to travel. Upsides, It's cheap, It's old, you will not have too many eyes on it, easy maintenance, consumption. Downsides, one cylinder... some vibration on the handlebars and footpegs, 5 speeds gear box... above 120/130 kms/h not very pleasant. So yes I think it's good for travel but I do not have much experience to be fair. Cheers

    Also got one, in yellow! Sometimes I would have about 2100rpm when I depress the clutch but still rolling; only after complete standstill it would drop to 1400. What helps indeed is letting the computer figure it all out at start-up: start your engine and don't touch your gas lever until all the lights have disappeared and the rpm has dropped to idling. For sure similar to holding the start button for 3-5 seconds!
