BOROVETS - 2013 BMW G 650 GS SERTAO 50hp motorcycle rental

The Sertão acquitted itself well over the winding back roads of Bulgaria. The 820 - 860mm seat is actually quite manageable because the seat itself is rather slim, and once aboard the high(ish) perch, its broad handlebars and upright ride position place you in total control. The 652cc single-cylinder donk is a gem. On the technical side, the new G 650 GS Sertão uses the established liquid cooled, high-torque single cylinder engine of the G 650 GS with two overhead camshafts, fuel injection, and double ignition. Its 652 cc displacement delivers 35 kW (48 hp) at 6500 rpm and a max torque of 60 Nm at 5000 rpm. It might only be punching out 35kW (48hp), but It can harness all of what it had on offer, and that adds up to a satisfying ride experience. It’s also incredibly easy to ride, with a light throttle, clutch and gearbox, and the extra surety of some conservative steering geometry and a large 21in front wheel. On the road the suspension gave a good account of itself. It’s basic – a non-adjustable front fork and a monoshock with preload and rebound adjustment. The Brembo brake package also held up its end of the bargain, offering good progression, decent feel and adequate power, backed up by the safety net of switchable ABS – a welcome thing given the wet, slippery conditions.
