Hi Guys. I just got a new bear 650 and have done only 550kms. There seems to be quite a lot of blueing around the exhaust head. Is this normal?

Added a new Bear to the stable to keep my gen-1 390 ADV company. Just 68kms on the odo. But absolutely loving it!

​

I'm 94Kgs, 5'11. Bike fits me perfectly!

​

The suspension that a lot of people were complaining about has been a radically opposite experience for me. I tend to keep higher than normal speeds on off road patches, because the 390 also has stiffer suspension.

For my weight, the suspension of the bear at its stock setting eats up bad roads like it has no business doing.

​

I've even jumped it off 2 humps and as long as I shifted the weight to the footpegs and slightly saddled, it just flew over them without any bottoming out.

​

Everytime I park the bike, I can't stop looking back at how pretty she looks. And boy the whistling note with the slight burble from the exhaust when you roll of the throttle! I think I'm in love. Currently finding reasons every 2 hours to get on it and ride.

(P.S. 0 accessories added. Will get the protective ones soon. For the other like seat, cowl , exhaust, open to recommendation on whether they are worth it and if I should get it aftermarket or from RE)
