Hi beemer owners, is owning a BMW similar to owning a Jap bike?

 

nope..

 

the amount of stares u get from passer-by are seriously irritating.

and the occasionally. "nice bike" also irritating.

 

:cheeky:

When you have walked my path of pain and suffering

you will understand my need for revenge and to inflict pain on those who have betrayed me

As a scorpion bides its time to strike so shall I wait for that moment to obtain my vengeance

And my mocking laughter shall be the last thing they hear. In The End, We Remember Not The Words Of Our Enemies, But The Silence Of Friendships

Hi Beemers, i ned some opinions.. I'm looking at the F800R.. u guys think it would be a good ride? my mileage is on the high side, i've clocked 20,000/yr on sg roads alone.

 

How would the maintenance costs be like? I really love to own one but not sure if i can manage financially.

 

F650GS and F800ST is also on my watched list.

The F800R is a very good bike for sg traffic. Handling is light and the seat is low enough for both feet resting comfortly on ground . 16 litre of petrol for me can cover 350km.

U prefer to go PML be prepare for their unrealistic labour

Charges....

based on your signature ride photo, I guess you need not to worry about the maintenance cost by PML, from F800R, F800GS & F650GS, I finally decide on F650GS despite both F800R & F650GS machine cost almost same and F800R better spec than GS model.

 

Reason for buying is to keep riding, speed is not for my age and today I shock to realize am already an "Older worker" from the Budget 2012.

 

Keep riding & ride safe.

The church is near, but the road is icy. The bar is far away, but I will walk carefully.

Just bring to any bike shop and use their disposal sump. They will not mind as they are paid something when it gets collected.

 

Cheers
