Avantages et inconvénients en comparaison
BMW F 800 R 2017

Avec un moteur EURO4, de nouveaux modes de conduite, de nouveaux instruments et de nouvelles couleurs, la F 800 R démarre la nouvelle saison. Au premier coup d'œil, elle n'est reconnaissable qu'à l'embout de son imposant pot d'échappement en acier inoxydable. Elle fait partie de ces motos adultes qui, malgré un potentiel sportif considérable, ont été conçues pour un groupe d'utilisateurs aussi large que possible. C'est pourquoi elle est parfaitement adaptée aux débutants (bridée), mais peut également enthousiasmer un public expérimenté. Son caractère reste certes un peu pragmatique, mais il est compensé par la sonorité inimitable et caverneuse de ce deux-roues en ligne.
