The gsx650f is no doubt a great work horse and daily grinder and fun machine but since having the gsx650f for just over 12 months i was quite surprised to find out how cheap it has been as a motorcycle.
Average trip of 380km per week. 20000km per year this includes work and fun.
1/ 4 x services total $1100.
2/ 2 sets of tyres total $900.
3/ Insurance $550
4/ Rego $101
5/ Green slip $400
6/ Fuel $ 1280 (based on 250km per tank @ $16)
$4331 pa or $82 per week. or $12 a day. That's cheaper than a packet of smokes .
This further highlights what a great motorcycle the gsx650f has been because its so cheap to run and provides so much fun.
