Talking about the lack of "character" in this premium product of the BMW brand is subjective and irrelevant. Especially if we are talking about some kind of comparison with the Neanderthal character of Moto Guzzi.

Good video, and thanks. Its strange how subjective bikes are. Ive ridden and owned bikes for over 50 years and cant say ive ever met a bike without character? I have owned a guzzi v7 and ridden a friends v85... At the tome time i was on an old gs1100 ...and on the country roads i prefered the gs...it just felt more planted. The 800gs is on my test list so will look for the missing character whatever that is 👍

@@cetdac3 yes subjective is the word the F800GS is a great bike it rode well, I have owned a R1200GS in the past a really great touring bike, I think for me I always go back to BMW to bench mark everything else by they are so popular for a reason but I just love Italian bikes, hate the dealers but love the bikes😁😁 thanks for watching and commenting👍

I have several GS models one is the 750GS, it’s the second one I’ve owned. My first was a 2019 model now on a 22 plate, there’s no other difference apart from the slight increase in engine size, even the 2019 had the TFT. Nice review though. Re did that put it in the wrong place, should have said although not relevant now push the top of the menu button to find more info including the fuel gauge👍

Best thing about BMW is it looks amazing and rides better than 99% of the bikes out there. I've yet to see a Guzzi bike that looks anywhere close to the word "good". They all look old and clunky and boring.

I think the total opposite. The BMW 800 GS a bland twin. No character. A Guzzi is much more interesting and characterful.

@@ed.t.hansen6499 I made a testdrive with both yesterday, including a Honda NT1100. The comfort, perfect sitposition and quality of components is so well of the BMW. For me it felt much saver compared to the Tiger (Braking and sitposition). Specs and riding are 2 things you cannot compare. The TFT is perfect, the headset, the gearchanger, foodpegs holder for the passenger (!) etc. are so well made. The qualityfinish and riding made me decide for the F800GS. Go make a testride, you won't be disappointed!

People that don't understand what character means, they just can't have the same satisfaction of just riding and owning a guzzi. Guzzi is a companion and beyond comparison. I m sorry for the people they are obsessed with spec sheets and vacuum cleaner aesthetics

Absolutely right, maybe things will improve with the new models and it would be great to have a Guzzi dealer in the Lancashire area. I-think. The way things are going manufacturers are closing dealerships so how about a new super centre for Italian bikes one can only dream😁😁

Looks like good value from BMW for a change, question is it 1000 euro better than the Honda Transalp 750. Btw, there are modern bad bikes - to me they're overweight, full of electronic gizmos to the gills, expensive and falsely promising riders they can adventure off road through the desert and jungles.o
