The BMW F650CS Scarver is a unique motorcycle that blends the practicality of a dual-sport with the comfort and sporty handling of a street bike. Launched in 2001, the F650CS made its mark as a user-friendly and versatile machine, ideal for both urban commuting and weekend adventures. It featured a single-cylinder, 652cc, four-stroke engine, derived from the Rotax design, renowned for its reliability and torquey nature. This engine, combined with a light and agile chassis, offered a responsive and fun riding experience, making it accessible to riders of all skill levels. The F650CS comes equipped with a comfortable rider seat, upright handlebars, and a forgiving suspension setup, prioritizing comfort and stability over aggressive sportbike performance. Its distinctive design, characterized by a high-mounted exhaust, a sleek fairing, and a raised front fender, gave it a distinctive and adventurous appearance, appealing to riders looking for a motorcycle that could do it all.

The F650CS's practicality was further enhanced by its long-travel suspension, allowing for comfortable riding on rough roads and light off-road excursions. However, its true strength lies in its urban capabilities. The Scarver excels in traffic, offering a commanding view of the road and a comfortable riding position. The bike's fuel efficiency and relatively low seat height also made it a perfect choice for new riders and those seeking a practical and reliable daily commuter. The F650CS was produced for five years, from 2001 to 2005, during which it received minor updates and refinements. Its discontinuation was due to BMW's shift in focus towards larger displacement motorcycles and its acquisition of the Husqvarna brand, which allowed them to offer similar styled models under a different brand. Despite its discontinuation, the F650CS remains a popular choice among used motorcycle buyers, offering a compelling blend of performance, versatility, and affordability, attracting riders who seek a reliable and enjoyable motorcycle for both commuting and weekend adventures.
