The athletic F 800 S sports bike has a dry weight of under 419 lbs. (approx.
441 lbs. ready-to-ride) and is the first model of the new and separate model
series. The precise suspension is designed for high directional and
cornering stability as well as optimum handling. The classic BMW qualities
such as safety, compliance with the highest environmental standards,
ergonomic seating position and comfort also for the passenger define the new
standard in the mid-range bike. A closed-loop three-way catalytic converter,
state-of-the-art digital engine electronics and optional ABS are also a
matter of course for this motorcycle.
With regard to the drive-line, BMW Motorrad is continuing with the
innovation introduced on the F 650 CS and makes use of the low-maintenance
and quiet-running belt-drive. It is lighter than shaft drive and represents
the optimum combination of weight, space requirements, efficiency and
service life in this performance class.
The engine is also a completely new design. It was
developed in cooperation with Bombardier-Rotax GmbH. It is manufactured in
the Austrian Rotax plant and is delivered to the Berlin production line
ready-for-assembly.
The first two-cylinder inline engine in the history
of BMW Motorrad features a four-valve design. High 12:1 compression and a
combustion chamber designed similarly to the one used in the new K-engine
ensure effective and low-emission combustion, as well as efficient fuel
consumption which will be considerably lower than that of the competition.
Mass compensation for the crankshaft balances unwanted vibrations without
foregoing the vigorous characteristics associated with two-cylinder engines.
The compact engine unit with integrated 6-speed gearbox has been designed
for balanced power delivery and uncomplicated riding pleasure. A peak output
exceeding 80 bhp with respective torque will also satisfy a sports-rider's
needs.
