BMW F-Series description
Chicago, IL As a new father, I'm selling my beloved F800GS. It has been well used in the last 4 years but also very well taken care of. It runs like a clock and has been nothing but reliable for 30,000 miles. Regular maintenance and oil changes by both the dealer and myself. Only 4 years old. Totally dependable. To outfit a new bike with the same level and quality of gear you'd spend over $22,000. Bluebook is around 9,000, extras easily bring it to 10,500. This bike is adventure ready and proven. It has an auxiliary tank and a range of around 300 miles. It has taken me through Death Valley and up to Deadhorse via the Dalton Highway last summer with no problems. It is great for long highway miles and totally capable offroad. Its size and presence help with visibility when commuting in the city as well. It has nearly $7000 in accessories but no frivolous farkles! Everything is there for a purpose and meant to strengthen its capabilities as an adventure bike. (with the exception of the short beak, my preference) For example: HyperPro Progressive fork and rear springs settle and improve the OEM set-up for both on road, minimizing front end diving under braking, and off road performance. Here's the list of add-ons with original cost of items - THESE ARE ALL INCLUDED in the 10,500 selling price. BMW panniers $1,000 BMW Vario Topbox $450 Garmin Zumo GPS with powered mount $500 Wunderlich Vario Clutch/Brake Levers $330 Wunderlich Tankbag $250 Denali Lights $265 per pair $530 Touratech Desierto Fairing $830 HyperPro progressive front fork springs $200 Hyper pro progressive rear spring $180 Touratech headlight guard $120 Ralle Moto Steering Damper $590 Rox Risers $110 Short Beak Conversion Kit $215 Holan Engine Guards $290 Pivot Pegz $170 Sargent Seat $450 Remus Hexacone Muffler $750 BestRest Shock Bolt support $120 Camel Adv Products Auxiliary Tank $400 Gerbing temp controller and port $80 Also included: DoubleTake Enduro Mirrors (OEM included) Cruze Toolkit Spare clutch and throttle cables (zip tied alongside active cables) Spare spark plugs Rotopax fuel containers and mounting system OEM windshield OEM muffler OEM beak OEM seat BMW specific spark plug changing tool Recent additions - this winter: New TKC 80 tires front and rear New DID 525 gold chain New front and rear sprockets New K&N metal reusable Air Filter New battery Fresh oil change and filter Checked both wheel bearings New brake pads auxiliary lights/GPS/heated gear all wired through new Denali Powerhub - clean install Known issues: Side stand switch disabled - gear indicator sometimes displays wrong gear which can trick the bike into killing the ignition when the side stand is down. I disabled the switch (which is often disabled anyway as it is a failure point which can cause trouble on when on a trip). Remember to raise the sidestand before departing. Rims scratched from tire changes - merely aesthetic Scuffed plastics and engine guards - normal usage This is a great bike with an adventure pedigree. Still some Dalton Highway dust on it somewhere I'm sure. I trust it with my life. In the interest of full disclosure, there was an incident in March 2014 - an RX7 (fully at fault) turned left without yielding and damaged the front end. To be comprehensive, the entire front end was completely replaced with brand new OEM parts, covered by insurance (no penny pinching), and installed and certified by trusted SF BMW Motorrad technicians. This was well before I undertook the 12,235 mile round trip to Alaska last summer. There are ZERO after effects from the incident. No frame deflection. No issues whatsoever. Like I said, I trust this bike with my life, and you can too. |

BMW Standardizes Switches
Thu, 23 Oct 2008Whenever you throw your leg over a bike that isn’t your own, there is always a few minutes needed to become familiar with the proportions and controls of the foreign machine. Getting a sense of the clutch release point, brake feel, throttle response and riding position may all differ from what you have been accustomed, but they slowly become second nature after enough seat time is logged. One such control that strays from this rule of thumb is the turn signal operation of many BMWs.
EICMA 2012: BMW Announces New Boxer to Mark 90th Anniversary
Tue, 13 Nov 2012Over the summer, we came across spy photos of a new naked version of the BMW S1000RR and a new air-cooled boxer roadster and hoped at least one of the two would be unveiled at either Intermot or the EICMA. Intermot came and went without a word and now EICMA is upon us we have … well, several words but no new model. Yet.
