Re: Has this W650 been lowered?
Try Dunlop K70s for a classic look. Size would be 4:00-18 and 3:50-19 back
and front. They wear well and handle the W650s performance well enough. Not
bad on the green lanes either.

Re: Has this W650 been lowered?
Can¡¯t see the tank enough to tell. The wheels look to be standard, just wrapped in classic style tyres so would be 110x18¡± on the rear and 100,19¡± on the front

Looks likes you could get most of the parts from WeBike in Japan. I¡¯ve ordered from them several times with nothing but praise for the quality of parts I¡¯ve ordered.

Yes it¡¯s definitely been lowered. Those shocks in the rear look super short. The exhaust is custom, the rear fender has been bobbed along with the front. The handle bars are also custom, look like

Has this W650 been lowered?
Can anyone list the changes that have been done to this bike?
Has it been lowered? Are the wheels original? What tank is that? Tires? Exhaust?

I just tried the

Hi there,
Thanks for the heads up. I was hoping that wasn¡¯t the case. I found some Suzuki ones that might fit so will see how that goes.

Hi there,
Does anyone know where to find replacement screens for the petcock? They are showed as A in the service manual but the parts manual doesn¡¯t seem to indicate a part #.

Re: Throttle sensor
I had the same with my ignition barrel. The bolts are a special head and not supposed to be able to get them out. Mine started to back out. Look up under the barrel to see if they r backing out.
