Sounds like you should have went with the 850 but then a spring modification and maybe a lower seat. The difference is more than what you say, the front wheel is also 21inch and more narrow. And the front suspension is not only upside down, it is longer. If you plan(ned) to do more off road riding the 850 just is the better one. 750 is a street bike that allows you to take a dirt road, but that’s about it. I am about your size, the 750 fits better, but 850 was not impossible. Safe rides!
This is how the F850 should have been made. This bike with proper forks and spoke 19 inch wheel would be perfect. F850GS with 17-21 wheels is monstrosity. I say you better off with F750GS if you want a BMW. The 19inch wheels makes it more usable than the 21 inch that you'll never use.
Excellent revievew! I like the pro's & con's you've given. I was interested in a used 850 gs but it was just too massive for what I wanted to do . I sat on a 750 and it fit like a glove to me. Seriously looking at this bike vs a Honda Transalp 750 & V-Strom 800 .......
Great review! I also have a 750 and agree that it is a great all around bike. I have the premium package and ride with the suspension on Road mode and the Mode switch on Dynamic unless I am riding mountain roads where I put the suspension in Dynamic as well. It rides almost as smooth as my 1250 GS did on the street with a very comfortable seat and seating position. Power output is plenty and I get just under 60 mpg overall. Arguably the best all around bike available in my opinion.
Thanks for the review, Mr. Bruno. Just a note of advice regarding braking: to play it safe, both brakes need to be used at all times, and if one brake (more than the other) will cause you to have an accident when operated alone, that is always going to be the front brake, my friend. Ask anyone who races bikes for speed or off-road and their answer will always be 'of course, both brakes' most typically. More often than not, for the last many years, many bikes come already equipped with linked braking ... why would that be, right?
Hi, yeah. Later I noticed what I said. Sorry for that. Mainly both brakes have to be applied for safety. For off road just the rear so the front wheel doesn't skid. You can apply front when in a straight line to help reduce speed.
Beautiful bike! Your English is perfect. You must have spent a lot of time in the US. Consider putting a little bit of orange reflective tape on the side of your storage box for night safety.
Mine a white one 2022, love so far, just install aluminum side boxes, piug touring windshield, waiting for handlebar extender to arrive, I hate where they put the phone cradle (like most others), will remove that. I think I want add hand protection with windshields. ride on!
Great review and nice accessories. I especially love the pegs, the brake peg, the light cover, and the phone holder. I wish I could find someone to make the light cover in Turkey. The ones we can buy are so thin.
Good review. I have a 40 years edition and just 600 km trying to complete first 1000 km. havent bought a protector for headlight and for exhaust. Do you recommend it ?
Can I use this bike everyday? I want a big Cc bike but alot pf people say those bikes are not good everyday bikes because they use to much gas ⛽️ and they overheat. I live in Oaxaca Mexico and do about 50 to 60 km a day in the city.
You sure can. I use it to go to my office everyday. In the city I get about 43mph. On the highway almost 60mpg. It does get hot in traffic, specially in the summer but the radiador does a good job cooling it down.
Super review! although I am surprised you like the transmission. I think its the weakest point of the bike like on many BMW's. A good advice for the chain slapping issue (factory design flaw) is to keep slack to minimum and bump up the pressure rear. I will try that. You also reminded me to set up the sag... Thanks. What phone charger/holder is that? Care to share a link?
You mean lower the rear tire pressure. Actually it is a custom fit between these two: www.carpimoto.it/en-PE/Bike_BMW_F-750-GS/Brand_Givi/50784_FB5127-Givi-FB5127-Smartphone-.htm www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07YQ3K49C/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
@@Brunoxtr I thought i heard increase not decrease the pressure but yes, makes sense to be decreased now that i think about it. For the holder, i have the same givi bracket and i was looking at the same phone holder but the bracket is 11mm and the holder is 22mm. How did you manage to tight them together? Thanks and sorry for bothering
I have the same bracket on my bike but use the SP Connect system. You can attach your phone really quickly, and when you don't need it it doesn't get in the way. Only downside is it's a little pricier, but worth checking out: sp-connect.co.uk/collections/motorcycle
what year and can ABS be turned off on the rear, how is the ABS on the loose gravel and dirt? I am looking at trading my street triple in for the 2021 model
Great informative video. I would like to know how did you mount the fog lights on your bike. What bracket you used? Where did you purchased? Did you connect this fog light to Canbus or you connected directly, What cables do you used. If you share the link it will be great help to me.
You have increase the height of the gear leavers by adjusting the upper screw of the shaft. I have done it to my 750 and now can easily slide my adv boots under it.

Totally agree on buying side frames protection and bottom skid plate as soon as you get the bike and nice review 👌

Totally agree. That’s why the 1250 has 19 inch in the front.
too hi on 850. what to get on; not need a ladder .
Adónde compraste el parabrisas GIVI? Que modelo es ?
Awesome video... Good information I'm thinking of getting one.

sounds so different from my F800R. valves jangling, not smooth; like its falling apart. just so different. Why . noisy; so differnt from Engines

need special flat shoes with the adv pegs; to not catch the grooves on your shoes.
Note:You can also adjust your rear brake piston link(Just be careful to adjust correctly).Enjoy.
handle bar risers are ez to install; ? cables long enough
Excellent review - informative and clearly articulated. I just bought one of these to replace my heavy and tall R1200GS. Subscribed.. safe travels! .

Your chain looks really dry. It needs to be serviced every 500 miles. This will lower the amount of noise. As it wears however, it will get noisy.
Fantastic video review. Good job. I’m seriously thinking of trading my scrambler for one of these.

Yo estoy pensando en adquirir esa misma Moto

Great review!
Thank you for the good review. Wish you safe and fun journey !
Are those engine and tank guards of Hepco Becker?

I like that screen proctor hood. Where did you find it?
You can look for it on Amazon.
HI great video thank you. Can you share the amazon link for the engine guards protectors?

Sure! Its no longer available but you can find similar ones.

How would you compare it to F900XR?
The XR bikes are for touring. Just for eating miles and miles on road.

OK, thanks!
You have the low version ?
All 750s are low
No it is standard and not spring modified.
