2007 BMW F 800 ST review from United Kingdom
"Fandabydozy (That means brilliant in Glaswegian language)"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Warranty recall for crank case bolt torque - 2007.
Warranty recall for potential issue with bike failing to start - 2008 - I never experienced this.
Breakdown Feb'09 (1st ride-out of the year) due to engine cutting out when I turned the handlebars - New wiring harness being fitted as I write this comment. Quite a shock for me to think that the bike is under 2 years old with 4,500 miles on clock and it requires a new harness.
General comments?
I love this bike, it looks good.
It rides good. It's great to tour with.
I have obtained 63 miles per gallon, which is very economical.
Will keep it as I have not seen anything else on the market that I would swap it with.
