UPDATE - Ithas been a week since this review has gone live and as promised, the highest offer cake from Dave L. From Sacramento. The motorcycle has been sold. May it treat you well Dave and thanks for supporting my work and this channel. Cheers. Nik
As a 6 months owner I appreciate your review, but would like to stress the heat problem, on both sides expecially in a warm environment, it's a serious issue even after 10-15 minutes from engine's start. I have the withe version, it looks great with stock fairing, and dash visibility is quite good. Another thing I've found is that DIY maitenance takes longer time compared to other bikes because of the multple layers of fairings to unmounto in order to arrive to air filter. I'll keep it and try to solve the heat problem with a homemade air duct.Thanks
Thanks for that. Did I me turn the heat in my review because I definitely Italy filmed it and wanted to stress it?
Great reviews, I've been watching older content on your channel for a while and I was searching for an F800gt when this was posted so I wanted to say thanks for the honest review.
Also, I'm in for $1500. I know that's low compared to the market, but I have a large shipping cost to account for as well. Thanks again for the videos!
Thank you very much for the support. I am glad you found my videos worth the time. Cheers. I will keep your offer in mind. Nik
F800: because I can’t afford a r1250gs
Two very, very different bikes. Aside from the blue and white logo, not much is similar.
I've been shopping for this bike on FB Marketplace. Only to find this video while researching. Turns out, I've been looking to buy your bike haha.
I'll make an offer of 3800. I'll come pick it up.
Thanks for watching. Appreciate the offer but there's a viewer planning to come down from Sacramento this week to pick it up. His offer was higher and I promised I'd hold it for him until the weekend given the distance.
@@pegasusmotorcycletoursah, I'm taking the MSF class this weekend. Or I'd attempt to outbid him ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
what about reserve parts for these one are they pricey?
BMW ownership is price period. It's not a very common bike so I'd assume yes they are.
Dam. I am just selling out on my long time F800S due to the vibration and into an F800GT because when I rode it the vibration is way less. Your'e saying the FGT has a bad vibration and its a deal breaker? FFS. Back to experimenting with bar end weights then.
For me in any case. Maye you'll find it ok in comparison.
your bags look awfully loose think the rubber padding on the hook of the bags is compromised
Thanks for that tip. I'll check them.
