In 2009, the German motorcycle manufacturer launched the BMW F650GS, which replaced the 2000-2007 F650GS. The bike featured a two-cylinder engine instead of the single-cylinder previously used and other modifications that enhanced its overall capabilities.

The bike debuted in 2008, and although the engine had a larger displacement, it retained the same name. In addition to the engine, the machine featured an Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS), heated grips, clear turn signals, a redesigned exhaust system, and different wheels.

In the aesthetic department, the 2009 BMW F650GS packed standard features, such as a two-piece headlight, a small windscreen, a one-piece dual seat with passenger grab rails, ten-spoke lightweight aluminum wheels, and a black-finished engine and frame.

As for power, the 2009 BMW F650GS had installed a 798cc four-stroke twin-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a fuel injection system feeding the pistons, delivering 71 hp with maximum strength at 7,000 rpm and 75 Nm (55 lb-ft) torque at 4,500 rpm.

The bike's power was handled by a six-speed manual transmission with a wet multi-plate clutch and a final chain drive, pushing the machine to 192 kph (119 mph).

The bike was built on a tubular steel frame with a 41 mm telescopic fork and a 300 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the front. On the rear, the bike packed a dual-sided swingarm with a single shock absorber and a 265 mm disc with a single-piston caliper, delivering optimum suspension performance and stopping power.
