I took the kid's new F800ST for a 300 mile ride today. Wow!
Have you ever ridden a bike where everything, I mean EVERYTHING is just right. Where the feel and sound and experince is an order of magnitude greater than the specifications. The F800ST is just that.
I have friends with K75's that just love them. I never had one, but the people that do never want to retire them and keep finding ways to ride them 20 years after they were made.
I think the F800ST is like this. No amount of looking at brochures, or pictures can explain the feeling of riding one.
I got this for my Kid, but WOW! I love the agility, the feel, the sound. I would not hesitate to jump on and ride across the country, or burn twisties with the local Squids.
It really is amazing. If I did'nt already have an 06 K1200GT , I think I would get one of these, and even more I could have this as my only bike.
So I am in love with a bike that technically does'nt belong to me. Oh well, such is life.
yep....thought so...the Kid really needs to hide the keys! lol Too amusing, although I imagine that will be a moot issue after the short seat is put on.
