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. |

When is a 500 Not a 500? – Question of the Day
Wed, 24 Apr 2024When it's a 451, d'uh. In our last Question of the Day, we asked about some of the more… questionable names given to motorcycles (Hondas seemed to come up fairly often in the replies, which is both interesting and somehow not surprising.) I mentioned how it’s generally safer for a manufacturer to stick to a combination of letters and numbers. While that’s generally true, apart from the occasionally comical practice of tackling on another “R” to make a model sound sportier ( looking at you again, Honda), it does bring the focus onto yet another common pet peeve: motorcycles with misleading numbers in the name.
EICMA 2012: Bimota BB2 Concept Revealed with BMW S1000RR Engine
Fri, 16 Nov 2012Bimota revealed a new concept sportbike at the 2012 EICMA Show equipped with a BMW S1000RR engine. The Bimota BB2 concept is the first product of a new partnership signed with BMW that would see the German manufacturer supply S1000RR engines for Bimota. The S1000RR engine has class-leading numbers, with the 172.4 hp we measured in our 2012 European Literbike Shootout a 10.4 hp advantage over any literbike we dyno’ed for that shootout or the Japanese Literbike Shootout.
WSBK: 2012 Moscow Results
Mon, 27 Aug 2012The historic race first-ever World Superbike Championship round in Russia provided plenty of drama with several top riders crashing out of both races and a new leader emerge in the chase for the 2012 WSBK Championship. Superpole qualifying made for four different manufacturers lining up in the first row of the grid, with Carlos Checa taking pole position for Althea Ducati ahead of Kawasaki‘s Tom Sykes, Aprilia‘s Eugene Laverty and BMW rider Leon Haslam. A slightly damp and unfamiliar track likely contributed to a number of crashes and collisions.
