Exactly on time for the start of the 2000 motorcycle season BMW is launching
its first new model for the new millennium: The new funduro F 650 GS excels not
only through its superb handling and outstanding comfort, touring and riding
qualities also with a passenger sitting behind the rider, but also through a
supreme standard of new technology in its class. As an example, it is the first
single-cylinder motorcycle with Digital Motor Electronics controlling the fuel
injection process and it comes as standard with a fully-controlled three-way
catalytic converter, as well as optional ABS - just like all of BMW's two- and
four-cylinder models so far.
This makes BMW the first and only motorcycle manufacturer in the world to offer
these innovative environmental and safety technologies for its entire model
range.
