Brakes loose compression when hot/driving for a while

It may be time to replace the brake fluid - there may be water in it which can be absorbed from the air. Also, be sure to bleed any air out of the system.

Where are the fuses on

The fuses on the F650CS (scarver) are located under the seat.... remove the seat first. Then look up near the RHS area usually covered by the front of the seat and there will be a small black plastic cover over top of the fuse box. Remove the cover to access the fuses.

Can I clutch start a 650 G.S. with no problems and

If battery is completely discharged, you will not be able to push start your F650GS. The fuel pump needs to have power to pressurize the fuel system in order for the engine to run.

Best solution is to purchase a battery tender or other small charger and keep the battery in top shape when you have the bike parked.

Good Luck!

What type of oil should I get for my gs f650?

Use 10w40 motor oil in the gear box. Don't use any synthetic oils, oil marked "EC", or oil with "special" additives. Stick with the major brands; Pennzoil, Quaker State, Mobil or Shell. If in a hot area like Texas or New Mexico go with 20w50.

2005 suzuki c50 .stalling at idle

Increase the idle speed - knurled knob or screw that controls the raising and lowering of the carb slide on the side of the carburettor.
Check your spark plug as well - it will probably do with a clean.

BMW F650GS cannot shift down from neutral to

Unfortunately I do not have the answer yet, but I will!!! I too am having the same problem with my 2006 F650GS I can easily, smoothly go up and down through all the gears but there simply isn't a first gear! It has been mysteriously replaced with neutral. I am totally down with time off here and there for virtually everything and everyone with the exception of first gear and maybe the sun!!! Also the neutral light will not go off no matter what gear I'm in... it's like it's trying to fill in for first gear or something. I've been told it might be a shifting fork but as you can see in the diagram below from https://shop.maxbmw.com/fiche/DiagramsMain.aspx?vid=51602&diagram=11_2977 that 1st gear and 3rd gear share a shifting fork (part #10). Since I can easily use 3rd gear I should be able to use 1st. So unless I can get some useful information/advice on where to go I will take the engine out of the bike and tear it down and figure it out. What ever I find I will share with y'all! f650gs shifter-u5k2zpb5sjwye0thiffe3clc-d-0.jpg

What's your problem? BMW F650 overheating

Make sure you do not have an air lock in the head. There is a small bleed screw on the RHS of the head to bleed the air out.

There is petrol leaking from the fuel pump

No, it is not supposed to be filled with petrol. There is a crack in the housing, A common problem. Take the housing out, flip it over, roughen up the area around the crack and seal it with Q-Bond.

There is petrol leaking from the lid of the fuel

Yes, it is a common problem. Normally the housing needs to be replaced but if removed, you can roughen up the area where the crack is on the inside, and then use Q-Bond to seal it. Have repaired a few like this.
