Review
The 2008 BMW G 650 Xcountry is a versatile machine designed for riders who want a taste of both on- and off-road adventures. Its 652cc single-cylinder engine delivers a punchy 52.3 horsepower and 60 Nm of torque, making it lively enough for city streets and capable on gravel roads. The five-speed gearbox is well-suited to the engine's power delivery, providing ample grunt for climbing hills or overtaking traffic. With a top speed of 170 km/h, it's no slouch on the open road either. Ergonomically, the Xcountry offers a comfortable upright riding position. The high 870mm seat height provides excellent visibility. Weighing in at 148kg, it's relatively light and manageable, making it easy to maneuver in tight spaces. The 45mm upside-down front forks provide decent handling, and the optional ABS offers added safety. The 9.5-liter fuel tank is adequate for shorter trips, but longer journeys may require planning fuel stops. This bike appeals to riders who appreciate a simple, functional design and don't need the complexity of more advanced adventure bikes. It's a great option for those who want a capable all-rounder for commuting, weekend rides, and exploring unpaved paths. The Xcountry strikes a good balance between affordability, performance, and usability, making it a compelling choice for riders looking for a do-it-all motorcycle.
