BMWF800ST 2007 - 2008

　　In 2007, BMW released the F 800 S and F 800 ST, a couple of middleweight machines addressed for those riders who liked to spend more time on the saddle but still wanted a fun and agile machine capable of offering the occasional adrenaline rush. The 2007 F 800 ST was designed to give serious fun to almost everyone, from commuters to tourers and even biking newbies.

　　The model featured the first 800cc parallel-twin engine in the history of BMW, meant to fill the gap between the single-cylinder F 650 bikes and the 1200cc boxer. The 798cc engine was a brand-new unit developed by BMW Motorrad in cooperation with Austrian Bombardier_Rotax GmbH.

　　The chassis was as impressive as the engine, with a single-sided swingarm attached to the rear of the frame and a conventional telescopic fork was fitted on the front replacing the Telelever suspension that BMW usually used.

　　The F 800 ST and F 800 S were bold entries into the middleweight category, which raised the stakes in their class by matching their competitor’s abilities with the quality, reliability, and ingenuity of the BMW brand.

　　The 2007 BMW F 800 ST came with standard features such as cast aluminum wheels, a full fairing, saddlebags, a single swing arm, and a stainless-steel exhaust.

　　The model powered by the 798cc four-stroke liquid-cooled engine had an output power of 86 hp at 8,000 rpm and 85 Nm (63 lb-ft) of torque at 5,800 rpm.
