Everyone has opinions and mine tend to fitted to what feels good through the bars and seat to my riding style. That said, the F800 BMW has been one of my favorite one up bikes built. Great motor, narrow and a good front end feel with good brakes. They made a ton of models but the Sport Touring versions had a different final drive system than the GS’s using a Belt Drive instead of a chain, going for a BMW tradition of no oiling and no mess being flung about by the drive chain.

The GT replaced the ST and gave the Sport Touring version of this bike a more power, better aerodynamic bodywork and a bit higher handle bars, relieving some of the weight in the arms yet still creating a bit of forward riding, sport style. The bike in my opinion is one of the best Sport Touring mounts out there. Its forte is not so much pounding the freeways but rather all of the secondary roads that make up this great country of ours. BMW rates it at 60 mpg, an additional plus to those who are watching.

The particular bike came loaded from Hansen’s with the Premium Package, ESA adjustable Suspension, Center Stand and. I am pretty sure it hit every important box on the order sheet! The customer also added a Corbin Seat and Tail Bag to supplement the Side Cases. Service records are available from Hansen’s.
