The BMW F650 is a family of motorcycles that was produced by BMW Motorrad beginning in 1993.〔Motorcycle News, February 2009, p29〕 Models include the F650ST Strada, F650 Funduro, F650CS Scarver, F650GS, and F650GS Dakar. The 1993 F650 Funduro and Strada were the first single-cylinder motorcycles from BMW since the 1960–1966 R27, and the first chain driven motorcycles from BMW.〔 ==1993–2000: F650 Funduro and Strada== The BMW F650 Funduro and F650ST Strada were introduced to Europe in 1993 and to the United States in 1997. The bikes were jointly designed by BMW and Aprilia, who launched their model as the Pegaso. The BMW bikes, which were built in Italy by Aprilia, were powered by an Austrian 652 cc single-cylinder Rotax engine.〔 It was the first BMW motorcycle with chain drive.〔〔 There were two variants: the F650 Funduro was a dual purpose bike, and the F650ST Strada had a smaller 18 inch front wheel and was intended for street use. Both models used two 33 mm Mikuni carburetors.〔 In 2000,〔 BMW introduced the F650GS to replace the Funduro, and the F650CS Scarver to replace the Strada. In 2001, the original F650 was discontinued. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「BMW F series single-cylinder」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
