Insurance in the UK is 4000 pounds per year for a 18 year old. You want to have like that?
You can’t drive a 800cc at 18 in the UK.
Fail.

Only those who can’t afford it will come with such nonsense comments like this.
Stay positive mate
Wondering whether this bike can take Thai Gasohol fuel… hmmm
I think the two photos are placed wrongly, GS should be below, R should be on top, considering the passages written doesn’t match the photos.
Guys is this in the same class with Versys 1000?Design and price band already similar
*sorry, accidentally hit reply*
Well, Afif, it’s less about whether the f800 series is same class as the Versys but more like they have different usages, the f800s is a lightwilight

Anyone own this Thai version bike (f800 gs)..really interested to know your feedback
why would anyone buy this bike when there’s a better option for the same price more a less outhere. CHeck 2015 versys 1000 out . you will be amazed.
Versys 1000..no doubt..it’s a nice bike but it is quite big for me..
i wonder on the price of a gsa of this 800 boxer. how much is it?
If you plan to ride the world unsupported then think weight,simplicity, practical and road-sidea maintenance possible. However if your range is anywhere between 1 to 2 thousand kilometres from your home and go for ‘wow’ factor then this bike is fine tho’ abit pricey imho.
F800 best bike ever preferred to GS1200 due to weight and agility. I have had one for 3 years now and used it off road in South Africa, Botswana , Mozambique and Swaziland its the bomb. Pity the bike prices in Malaysia is out priced. Same German version in South Africa is only RM 43K
Any idea about the lower seat height for F800 GS ?
Thanks
Both made in germany. 800 assembled in thailand
