The F800 S was a sports bike made by BMW Motorrad in 2006, along with the sport-touring motorcycle F800 ST. Both models used low-maintenance belt drives and a single-sided swingarm.
In 2007, BMW released the F 800 S with a Parallel-Twin with four-valve technology developed by BMW in cooperation with Bombardier- Rotax GmbH, built in the Austrian Rotax plant and then sent to BMW Motorrad in Berlin for final assembly.
The 2007 BMW F 800 S had its heartbeat set by the 798cc four-stroke liquid-cooled engine with an output power of 85 hp at 8,000 rpm and 86 Nm (63 lb-ft) of torque at 5,800. The engine was tightened to a six-speed manual transmission transferring the power to the rear wheel through a belt. With a wet weight of 209 kg (461 lbs), the bike had a top speed of 219 kph (136 mph).
The bike had a low dry weight of 182 kg (401 lbs) and featured aerodynamically optimized fairings which were a major contribution to the motorcycle's dynamic performance and particular advantages at high speeds.
The bike featured 17 inches cast aluminum wheels that rolled under a 43 mm telescopic front suspension and a single-sided swingarm with a hydraulically adjustable spring pre-load and rebound damper suspension on the rear.
The 2007 BMW F 800 S was for sale in 2022 starting from $3,000.
