BMW F 800 S: beautiful as volcanic sludge

On the first day of the Dolomite tour, there are nine passes on the program – a real hardness test for humans and material. In the sports variant S, the F 800 carries a deep mounted handlebar, which forces the driver into a bailed attitude – without sitting very much deep. "Not fish, not meat," you think at first. But after the first passports you are friendly with the seating position.
At the first latch to over 2000 meters on the Sellajoch, the F 800 S is attracting little attention – the BMW is designed to be good. Bikers of other brands can only be elicited "for a BMW quite good".
Recommended ABS costs 690 euros
On the steep passport runs the machine has a real ass in the sleeve. The brakes of the BMW are perfect to dose, the 690 euro expensive ABS prevents blocking tires and makes itself noticeable by weak pulsation of the brake lever. An extra, which is not only recommended for driving beginners, but also sports bikers brings more security. Like the brake system, the chassis deserves the predicate "Narrenproof". In case of wheel guide and spring elements, the BMW developers waived bicycling cutting chips and put on a suspension fork in front and a central leg rear. What looks like BMW-untypical savings solution works well and proves to be a successful compromise between sporty hardness and touring comfort.
After two days and 20 passes in the Italian Alps, the BMW proves itself as a balanced all-rounder. Admit, the F 800 S is not a sex bomb, in which you are in love with the first look or hunts for everyone looking at the new showers. For that, she comes without alloys, are not ruming and eats no hole in the maintenance of the budget. 8660 Euro costs the BMW F 800 S in the basic price. With a pair of meaningful extras such as ABS, the equally practical such as sizeable suitcase set and the on-board computer are quickly cracked 10 000 euros. This is not favorable, but still a worthwhile alternative to athletic middle-class competition from Japan.

  1. Report
    I can only agree with the positive test result. Also I have myself for a new model … decided in Lahargrau, and the F800s are very appreciated. An excellent suspension with a strong and economical engine in the usual model BMW quality draws the S. At the look you can still work on the optics thanks to the BMW accessory line.

  2. I drive the F800s for 2 years
    and share the conclusion of the report fully… The BMW is very handy and also good in everyday life. Clear who wants a superbike with more than 150hps, will not look around the F800S. I have not disappointed me so far, the performance is enough for me.

    BMW is part of the motorcycle area to pioneers in catalysts and ABS systems. What please is a fuel filter? Is therefore meant a cat? BMWs are in the series of serial everything other than "Cratent things". These are solid, sometimes something bad and according to today’s standards bikes with exemplary environmental compatibility.

  4. Wassoll be athletic about it?
    What should a motorcycle have to do with sports? "Athletic" can, (if at all!) Only one person and no machine! And what "athletic" Its should be, environmentally resistant (noise exhaust gases) is meaningless by the area, is not to be understood in today’s traffic conditions!

  5. Trouble-free vehicle
    My compliment to BMW. The F 800 S seems to be an everyday vehicle that can easily be used for all purposes and still fun. If no Ducs and KTMs can be suspended, this does not do that.

  6. What to do with sport?!
    Has the thing installed at least fuel filters and noise protection? I always annoyed me when so rattling things pass by my apartment!

  7. For passes there is the ST
    The test passes a bit past the target group of the 800s, the 800ST is with upright seating position, larger steering impact and without steering damper on passports the better vehicle. In direct comparison in the Dolomites, it is also the handling conducive to have little load in the arms. There you can be angled around the passports, as with the big 1200gs and is hardly departing.
