BMW F 800 R updated

BMW has revised its naked F 800 R for 2012. The alterations are purely cosmetic though, with the most noticeable difference being the redesigned side panels.



In addition, the previously optional body-coloured handlebar fairing and white indicators have become part of the standard specification, the rear suspension strut spring is now red and the front mudguard is painted to match the rest of the bike.

Technically things are unchanged, which means the twin-cylinder, 798 cc engine still produces 85 bhp (64 kW / 87 PS). Drive to the rear wheel remains via a chain, rather than the innovative belt-drive system of the F 800 S and F 800 ST - a missed opportunity for BMW to really differentiate the F 800 R, perhaps?



Sales of the 2012 BMW F 800 R are due to begin next month, and buyers will have the choice of Alpine White / Black Satin Gloss, Magma Red / White Aluminium Metallic Matt or Mineral Silver Metallic colour schemes. Its price in Germany has been set at €8,400 including VAT.
