What!? - a comparison of cubby holes! and you killed off the Fazer on price alone - Price we can see for ourselves - an actual comparison of performance, handling, transmission, low range power vs high would have been more useful.

@eduardosilva7304 5 лет назад

Would be nice that you let us know if, money aside, which is the best one! Comparing bikes based on the price tag, and putting to the side the Fazer because of that, doesn't answer the question - which one is the best? ...the purpose of this test... You should re-think about that when you compare different models Nice peg scratch on the Fazer! I'm going for that one.. money aside :). Thanks for the video

I have an '09 BMW F800S and it fooocking awesome :)

@fleetyboi 14 лет назад

i like the BMW purely because they don't have alot of bikes on the market and when they do make a new model bike there pretty good and im a sucker for a belt drive. helps with speed and last time i checked speed is good :D

@jarvis7947 13 лет назад

@Jim21680 The F800 ST is far from junk, sure there were a few issues when the bike was first introduced, but the greater percentage of owners were perfectly happy with them. Nearly all warranty claims made were met by BMW. By late 2007 the original reliablity issues had been sorted and the bike is now well sorted. I've been a biker for many years & owned V.Max tho' to VFRs and the ST is up there with the VFR for real world riding. Just avoid pre 2008 bikes and it'll be fine.

@paneuropeanian5220 10 лет назад

Shiver for me. So much more exciting in my opinion.

@TheSteps62 11 лет назад

Sounds to me that if all three bikes were the same price you would be buying the Fazer8, why have it in the test if the price was that important to you. I am not really that interested in the price I just want to know which bike performs best overall. Looks like the Yamy is the do it all bike with some grunt to match !

@IslanderJerYT 11 лет назад

Hey, not sure if you have had a reply. It is possible to harden up practically any motorcycle's suspension and there are a few different ways to do this depending on what it is about the ride you want to change. If you meant harden the suspension via computer, I would have no idea, but there are certainly manual ways to achieve this with almost any suspension system. To harden up the front of my Shiver, last week I stripped and cleaned both forks, new seals and used 10W in place of 5W fork oil

The Yamaha is a solid bike as is the BMW they both are quite dear. The Aprilia is the cheapest but when it comes to selling the Yamaha and the BMW they will hold their value far better in general, check online to see yourself. Nice Video :)

@dv8tion242 14 лет назад

what kind of mileage where these bikes getting on the motorway? i've read the BMW getting into the mid 60MPG range which is not bad for a 800 class bike. the downside (at least in the states - dunno about the UK) is that all the extras(computer, other toys), on the ST is a clean grand or so more. that was last year when I looked at one. pity as it's really a nice ride.

@MrRui33333 3 года назад

aprilia merece sim, ganhar , pode no ser a melhor moto ,mas sendo mais barata , tem bom torque e bem escolhida a cor,.. acho que será a mais atraente , as outras serao melhores pra devorar kms em estrada

@geminiman7069 5 лет назад

So, to hell to the resale ability, longevity, reliability and packing in the miles but opted for the useless mirrors, cubby holes , novelty plug in adaptor and go for the Aprilia. Capt. Sensible who appeared half way through with his microphone didn't go much on the Aprilia was tied up, gagged and left in a ditch on the A303, never reappeared to comment, but we have been informed he apparently loved it. Ha ha ha ha ha love it.

@Jim21680 13 лет назад

@jarvis7947 Hopefully that's true. I guess I should've noted that I owned an 07. The most serious issues with mine developed after the warranty had expired, with the rear bearing developing play. When I took it in to address that, they told me the bike had piston slap as well. So, BMW would repair the bike with parts on them, but shop labor on me. The bike had under 15,000 miles on it. Not happy with BMW, and I don't think I ever will be again. So yes, stick with the 2008+ bikes!

@Jim21680 13 лет назад

@Jim21680 And in all honestly, I cannot deny that the bike did handle very, very nicely. There's plenty of power for it's size. and it was just an all-around sweet ride. For my size of 5'10", it was comfortable enough for few hours, but definitely not an all-dayer. Now only if the mechanicals had treated me better...

@bratnikola 12 лет назад

Can You harden the suspension on the BMW? Thanks...

@SwollenCranium 3 года назад

Yes. Upgrade the fork springs.

@groMMit1981 agreed.. but the FZ8 looks like Yamaha did it on purpose :D

@staninjapan07 8 лет назад

Yeah that's all very interesting but why would anyone go for any of these when for less money and with better build quality you could just get a V-Strom 650? Has a screen, has small under-seat storage, takes a top box very well, has plenty of power..... and is very easy to ride and get along with. EDIT. Oh I just noticed this in not a recent video.

@556suppressor 11 лет назад

Early F800 ST's had fuel pump failures. The pump cost is $500 U.S. Bad decision by BMW to strand motorcycle riders far away from home. The days of poor design and poor mechanical/electric parts was supposed to be over.

@Jim21680 13 лет назад

The F800ST is junk. This thing has given me so many problems, it should never have been given the BMW name. Wheel bearing failures. Dead batteries. ABS issues. Piston slap. Poorly finished materials. What a horrible regret buying this thing has been.
