The F800S and ST both used single-sided swingarms and low-maintenance belt drives. The engine was notable for dominant and early onset of torque.
The drive was oiled by a dry-sump system, and a soft ignition-cut rev limiter engaged at 9,000 rpm. To counterbalance the significant inertia produced by the movements of the pistons, BMW developed a third vestigial connecting rod to a balance weight the end result was a parallel-twin engine with greatly reduced vibration compared to other parallel twin-engine designs. However, this firing order demanded both pistons to move up and down in unison. This made an exhaust note evocative of BMW's signature air-cooled boxer twins. Moreover, if you ever find yourself working on your F800 and things aren’t looking right, grab a BMW F800 repair manual and get things straightened out.īMW collaborated with Rotax to develop a 798 cc parallel-twin engine that features a 360-degree firing order. Along with the F800 and other bikes in the F-bike range, were the dual-sport F800GS, the sport-touring F800ST, and the naked F800R. From 2006 to 2010, the F800 was a sport bike manufactured by BMW Motorrad.
