BMW F 800 R 2015

Menus

The BMW F 800 R has no easy task to build a career. Within the BMW range, it remains in the shadow of a fully completed R 1200 R (yet 60% more expensive). In the mid-size roadster clan, countering the Triumph Street Triple, Yamaha MT-09, Suzuki GSR or Z 800 – slamming 100 horsepower or more – with a twin cylinder of 87 nags becomes a real challenge.. However, the machine does not lack approval or efficiency. Perhaps it only lacks that little grain of madness that the competition is striving to cultivate. To remedy this, the new version tilts precisely towards a little more insolence; while maintaining the serious BMW ?

The F 800 R combines several roles: versatile roadster, and entry level at BMW. He left the fury to the S 1000 R and notoriety to the R 1200 R. From there to provoking a slight identity frustration, there was only one step. So, she decides to change her gaze. What to do with these asymmetrical eyes, symbol of the BMW house and a source of both light and questions? Forgetting seems to be the order of the day, in order to make way for a more aggressive and protruding block. We can guess a certain influence coming from the facies of the Husqvarna 900 Nuda, cousin of a short time. And the teenage crisis ends with tank scoops (the fake one) which conquer a fresher air on the fronts of the machine. On the back and under the seat, the fuel flap always has its effect, ensuring the filling of the (real) tank under the saddle. The rebellion is also present where it is not expected: on the dashboard. Everyone is succumbing to digital fad. But the F 800 R saw fit to keep two good needle blocks to indicate rpm and speed. A digital window judiciously completes the information stock. When the classic becomes original…

BMW F 800 R 2015

Always equipped with the parallel twin of 798 cm3, the F 800 R wanted a little more watts to assert itself. The engine manufacturers thus offered him 3 additional horses. The 90 horsepower obtained at the same speed of 8000 rpm, and the torque of 8.8 mkg perched at ‘only’ 5800 rpm, will not be the only ones to offer more response. The first two gear ratios are shortened, thus offering more robust relaunch. Not lazy, voluntary and available, this block will satisfy many people in all situations but it still lacks a handful of horses to go and provoke the storms of the segment. It is also available in version A2, with a power reduced to 35 kW (48 hp) and a torque reduced to 7.1 mkg..

The ardor is more marked on the side of the front axle. As if to go hand in hand with the fervor of the optical unit, the steering is now entrusted to an inverted fork. What to offer more rigidity and precision to the small BM. This continues and is confirmed at the bottom of the same fork, with the adoption of radial fixing brake calipers..
The rest of its chassis remains, with perimeter aluminum frame, swingarm attached to the engine and single shock absorber. This can now receive ESA reinforcement as an option. A selection click and the electronics set it to Normal, Comfort or Sport mode. Too bad the fork is not in concert. The roadster can also be fitted with optional ASC traction control. However, ABS is supplied as standard..

Pleasant to drive from birth, the F 800 R fine-tuned its ergonomics with a new handlebar and footrests that were moved forward and lowered by 10 mm. A bit of relaxation for the legs. The saddle takes the opportunity to descend to 790 mm (- 10 mm) and facilitate access to small riders. But if this seat height does not suit you, there is something to adjust it as an option..

With a little playfulness to decide with rigor and all-German versatility, the F 800 R asserts itself then its evolution confirms its good manners. Its price retains an entry-level desire, making it possible to afford a roadster stamped with the Bavarian seal for the same price as other mid-size roadsters. On the other hand, the F 800 R has a much more extensive list of options, which can increase the bill beyond 5 digits..
