So I found a bike for sale that I’m kind of in love with, but I also think could be a terrible idea.
One of these.
It’s a 2003 F650 GS Dakar, with the ///M Livery and all. It seems like it wouldn’t be a terrible first bike, with a relatively low seat height or 34”s. I say relatively because other other big bike I’ve ridden an Honda ST100 has a 36” seat height and I didn’t feel uncomfortable on it, and it was considerably wider.
It’s also not a power house at 50hp, Altho that is a lot more than the 18-20 of the TW200s, DR200s and I’ve been considering.

So what do you guys think? Should I go for it, or run away and buy a little bike.
