2007 BMW F 800ST Overview
For 2007, BMW offers the F 800ST as a sport touring motorcycle with 798 cc on tap. The 2007 BMW F 800ST is built around a Two cylinder boxer engine, a compression ratio of 12.0:1. Out on the road, the F 800ST delivers 62.5 kW @ 8000 rpm of peak power and 80 Nm @ 5800 rpm of torque. Flat out, it's quoted at 229 km/h. In everyday use, the 2007 F 800ST tips the scales at 187 kg, carries a 16-litre fuel tank, offers a seat height of 820 mm and spans a 1,466 mm wheelbase. That's roughly 60.9 kg lighter than the average sport touring motorcycle in our database. Every technical detail, from suspension travel to tyre sizes, is covered in the full 2007 BMW F 800ST spec sheet below.
2007 F 800ST - Pros & Cons
Strengths
-
⚡
Strong power output: Peak output on the F 800ST is 62.5 kW @ 8000 rpm and 80 Nm @ 5800 rpm of torque - strong numbers for what it is.
-
🔧
Fuel injection: No choke, no jetting, no altitude compensation to think about - fuel injection just works across a wider range of conditions than carburetion.
-
⚙️
Low-maintenance final drive: Belt final drive is about as close to maintenance-free as motorcycle drivetrains get.
Considerations
-
📏
Tall seat height: A 820 mm seat puts flat-footing out of reach for a lot of riders - sit on it in person before committing.
Wear Points & Servicing Notes
Cooling system servicing
With Liquid cooled, thermal management is largely automatic, but the coolant has a service life of its own - replace it on the manufacturer's interval to protect the water passages and thermostat.
Fuelling & injector care
Fuelling on the F 800ST comes from Electronic intake injection. Cold starts and throttle response stay consistent across altitude and temperature, the main practical edge over a carbureted equivalent.
Brake disc and pad wear
2 x 320mm discs, 4 piston calipers up front provides the primary stopping power; inspect disc thickness and pad wear at each tyre change to catch scoring before it becomes a rotor replacement.
Suspension condition on used examples
Suspension duties are handled by 43mm Telescopic forks up front and Die-cast aluminium single sided swinging arm with rear wheal axle and eccentric adjustment, central spring stud , spring pre-loaded hydraulically adjustable to continuously variable levels by means of handwheel, rebound damping adjustable at the rear. Weeping fork seals aren't a dealbreaker on a used bike, but they're a fair basis for negotiating price.
Final drive maintenance
Belt final drive keeps day-to-day maintenance minimal on the F 800ST - just periodic tension and wear checks rather than the regular cleaning a chain demands.
Frame & chassis check
The Bridge-type aluminium frame chassis holds up well with normal use; on a used bike it's still worth checking the head-stock and swingarm pivot area for impact damage or corrosion.
F 800ST - Buying & Maintenance Guide
What to check before buying
A pre-purchase check on the 2007 BMW F 800ST should cover the same ground every time: service history, chain and sprocket condition, and any oil seepage around the casings. Start it from cold if you can - a well-kept F 800ST settles to a smooth idle within seconds.
Oil and filter changes
Oil changes are the cheapest insurance you can buy for a F 800ST's engine - keep to the manufacturer's interval rather than stretching it. Use the viscosity grade the manual specifies, not whatever's on sale.
Fuel system care
Injector systems like the F 800ST's hold up well with basic care - decent fuel, an occasional cleaner additive, and draining old fuel before any layup longer than three months.
