Just a quick video on some things you may not know about the BMW F800ST. Hopefully this will help you if you are looking to buy one of these bikes.

Fascinating. Thinking about getting one, had a couple of opposed twins in the past.

Great bikes, but there are some well documented common issues online. If you can find a good one, then I would say go for it.

😂 Noted! Also, I don't think this bike is actually an ST - It's an S that someone has tried to turn into an ST. The ST was only available in blue and 'graphite' according to the BMW press release. Fooled me though! Thanks for your comment mate

The heated grips were not standard - mine came without them. You've a great bike, but it does look like an F800S - as someone already meantioned, the ST never had red fairings.

Yep, you're spot on. It's an S with an ST fairing stuck on. I don't mind though, guess it makes it one of a kind! Thanks for commenting :)
I am currently looking it one do you think it would be confortable for a 6ft plus guy..

Hi, I'm about 5ft 10 and it fits fine, I don't hink you'd have any issues but definitley give it a test ride first. Good luck, and happy riding if you buy it!
As you have stated you are now a BMW w#nker now 😊, are you still going on Sunday???
