Re: F800 Gs
Surely BMW didn't listen to people and build what they've been asking for. Problem is I'll never be able to afford one.

Re: New F800GS
Does anyone else think the rear wheel is way out of proportion to the front?

Out of proportion until you put that 17" supermotard front wheel on it with sticky rubber, then hang on!

Re: F800 Gs
A CHAIN ?
Well what kind of adventure would it be with out having a final drive failure!
Seriously... at least they understand a rubber band is not a good idea on an adventure bike.

Re: F800 Gs
On a related note, I saw a guy in the neighborhood on an F800 ST. It looked to have the stock exhaust but it was really loud for a BMW.

I talked to a felllow that was working the BMW booth at the cycle show in Houston yesterday, and he thought that this new bike would be released an a late 2008 or as a new 2009 in the Fall of NEXT YEAR. At Daytona Beach bike back in March, Nate, and I forgot his last name, The main BMW factory racer, told me he has ridden this bike and he thought it would be coming out THIS Fall. Now, the next question is, will they follow this model up with an adventure model?
Yes,,,, I think I'll be buying my wife another bike soon,
