I still don't like the beemer headlight. That and they ditched the single sided swingarm from the regular f800S and ST

The srry 3/2 fairing one isnt too bad But.....its a BMW also.

I think for cost reasons. They were struggling with the price point. Some stiff competition for what will probably be at least $8500 base price.

I love my F800GS, but I'd probably take a Street Triple 675 over this. Unless ABS or (probable) integrated luggage was needed.

Not sure what Pffeiffer's riding, but I saw Teach about 3 weeks ago and he's on an F800S, which isn't coming back next year. This looks like what BMW is replacing it with.
