Before you buy a 2006 BMW F 800 ST Motor-bike in Uganda

by Edwin

The F 800 ST, the new medium category sports touring bike, also has touring-oriented equipment. Unlike the sporty F 800 S there is full trim, a high windshield, an aluminium luggage bridge as standard. The raised handlebars of the F 800 ST ensure an ergonomically favourable seating position. This model’s comfort defines new standards in the medium category and means it is predestined for lengthy trips - either singly or with a pillion passenger.

General 2006 BMW F 800 ST Motor-bike reviews for Uganda


The Engine: The Parallel Twin fitted to the BMW F 800 ST is a new high-tech, middleweight power plant. With a capacity of 798 cc, it delivers terrific punch right across the rev range. During development, the engineers didn’t seek to achieve as high a revving engine as they could, but to make the motorcycle as easy to control and ride as possible. As a result, fully 90% of the maximum torque of 86 Nm (at 5,800 rpm) is available from 5,000 rpm, while 62.5 kW (85 hp) ensures that all the excitement is transmitted directly to the road.

Conventional telescopic forks with a diameter of 43 mm and 140 mm of travel look after front wheel guidance, suspension, damping and anti-dive control. High overlay of the stanchions and fork sliders gives a high level of stiffness and ensures outstanding road holding, while the steering damper offers maximum stability, even during sports-style riding. The aluminium Delta Box frame used in the F 800 ST is extremely torsion-resistant and is responsible for the motorcycles’ precise, yet exhilarating handling.

The standard seat on the F 800 ST stands 820 mm off the ground with a step length of 1,810 mm, making the motorcycles ideal for riders over 1.70 m, while a lowered seat of 790 mm and step length of 1,750 mm is also available. All motorcycle riders know that the wider the seat, particularly toward the front, the harder it is to get your feet on the ground – whatever the seat height. As a result, the seat of the F 800 ST has been optimized for step length so that it is markedly slimmer towards the front, giving more freedom of movement for sports-style riding and making it easier to touch the ground when stationary. However, the rear of the seat is broader, for increased comfort. The sitting position on the BMW F 800 ST is suitable for both smaller and larger riders. The ergonomic triangle formed by the footrests, seat and handlebars is designed to give comfortable and relaxing sports-style riding.
