650GT 2023

When sporting performance meets modern usability, when elegant design aesthetics are injected into a touring bike, then the rules go out the window and mediocrity is left behind: the 650GT is born. Twist the throttle and feel the steady rush of power. Shift into gear and ignite your senses. Leave the world behind. Lose yourself in smooth acceleration and find yourself in the journey. Everything and anything is on the map with the rush and versatile prestige of the 650GT.

DESIGN
The 650GT carries an eye-catching sport-touring style that is modern, attractive and functional. The bike’s bodywork is sculpted for protection from the elements and for aerodynamic effect. The 650GT is spearheaded by a signature split L-shape LED headlight; inspired by the automobile industry and with full clarity for all times of the day or night on the road.

ERGONOMICS
The windshield has benefited from wind tunnel R&D for the best optimization over distance and allows a 60mm movement range for different-sized riders. The bike’s lines meld with bold and distinctive colorways. The rider’s position allows for sporty poise and control but also laidback comfort for longer trips. The 650GT’s seat height is a roomy 795mm and other details for the trip include a USB charging port and a 12V outlet to accommodate any external devices or guidance systems.

HANDLING
Smooth and sleek: the 650GT is the only ride for every purpose. Vibration reduction performance has been one of the key areas for development in the engine and chassis package but the KYB suspension kit is also a vital component in the bike’s comfortable glide. A softer spring rate in the 38mm forks provides a supple front-end feel while superior damping with the rear shock balances the 650GT for the lightweight and agile sensation into turns and out of corners.

ENGINE
The liquid-cooled 8-valve 650cc parallel twin engine produces linear, responsive power and a steady pull with its 180-degree crankshaft design. The sophisticated nature of the 650GT means a refined curve with plenty of muscle in the midrange that requires less shifting, while also providing sporty performance that will get your adrenaline pumping. The 650GT minds its manners with a mild exhaust note and is more reliable than ever with a revised connecting rod and other crucial internal modifications.

BRAKES
For the very few times when you will actually want to stop the 650 GT then strong brakes are supplied by Spanish experts J.Juan Braking Systems and are paired with a Continental dual channel ABS system. Double-piston calipers with semi-floating double discs give an enhanced braking experience on the front end of the bike while the rear is covered by a single-piston caliper with a single disc.

TFT DISPLAY
A colorful 5-inch TFT display features accurate data at a glance. Choose between Touring and Sport modes at the push of a button. Self-adjusted backlighting makes info easy to read as ambient light changes, with an eye-protecting display for night riding.
