Bike Prep: Baseline Pics from Dealership

Manchester, UK, April 2012 – My 2008 BMW F650 GS Twin, 798cc, 71bhp with ~8,000 miles on the clock, 3rd-hand. I caught an early train one Saturday morning all the way to Manchester to pick her up from the dealership. Then, I rode her home to London on the motorway for the first time ever in my life (on 2 wheels, that is). Over the past year, she has undergone major conversion to get her to a decent touring standard.

It’s been fun and exciting times. Though sometimes trying in order to get her to where she is today and working with dealerships to right wrongs. Over the next couple of days, I’ll be playing catch-up and posting the various upgrades I’ve added to her.

In order to see and fully understand just how much she has transformed, I figured I’d start with some ‘before’/baseline pics. Please note the picture quality won’t be as good as my other pics as these were taken from the website’s advert.
