Just to clarify for the non-beemer types out there. The F650GS was a de-tuned 800cc twin (similar to the F700GS). The G650GS is a thumper. I think the thumper version has about the same power as the NC. The twin should be noticeably faster.
The NC did not have the acceleration of even my '98 single cylinder carbuerated model. That was the disappointment for me. The NC was smoother and handled well-it just felt sluggish to me. BMW really made the model nomenclature confusing on these.
