Now personally...
I've had the BMW F800S for 2 years, from 2007-2009, and during those years I rode it all year round.
Yep even in the hot summer at 55 degrees celsius between cars at a red light which seems to last forever as the sweat poured over my brow and threatened to burn my eyes out of their sockets.
So 2011 is upon us, and sadly the F800S has been discontinued, though the F800ST is still alive and well. And from what I gather it seems the F800R has in a sense just eclipsed the F800S.
But here is something I did not know, is that the F800R has 2 more horsepower than all the 800 series.
Interesting =)
The F800R also has two important indicators that you will not find on competitor bikes.

- Fuel Gauge
- Gear Indicator
If your a BMW enthusiast you'd know that the F800R is Chris Pfeiffers preferred stunt bike.
