So, our F800GS has been out for a while and really no one has reviewed our bike. The new ADV version comes around and there are first impressions popping Oh well….At least BMW has released an ADV 800! But then again..aren’t all our bikes ADV tourers????? Would you buy this? The price seems not that…
Went down to our dealer on Sunday, May 5th to check out the BMW Demo day. I was not able to reserve a spot to test ride anything because of work and when I arrived all the bikes were signed out. Signed out for every ride no less. Pacific Motosports Hosted the ride and all…
Add a two piece adjustable height seat, adjustable shield and shaft would be almost perfection! LOVE IT! SHOULD have called it the F800GSA!!!!!! Seat is higher than the F8GS non ADV…remember no lowering this bike. So, in the end unless BMW introduces an adjustable seat including the height this version will not be for the…
Need I say more??? Leslie enjoying the off road capabilities of her BMW F800GS! Views and terrain you will never can get with just a street bike….;-)

The name’s almost the same but this middleweight sport-tourer is much better. I have read so many First Ride reviews but yet to read an in depth on of our 2013 BMW F800GS…so weird how our bike has received so little attention… SOURCE: CYCLE WORLD April 26, 2013 By Paul Dean Photographer : Jonathan Beck
It’s always fun when you get a new bike and get to buy some big-ticket items but sometimes it’s the little less expensive farkles that make your bike your own. Having owned BMW’s before, two ’10 F650GS’s, we have learned from our first time out of the gate what we want, need and who we…
