    The darkness of the film makes this look like a cool shot from a 70's motorcycling magazine. Throw the BMW rondel on there and a pithy slogan you'll introduce us to the 1976 BMW F800GS!

    Here's mine (again), from this weekend in north Georgia:

    Statutory holiday today (Canada Day) and the family felt lazy and didn't feel like doing anything, so I wasn't going to mope around the house all day. Left home for a small run around Dorchester Cape and found my way down an ATV trail to Johnson Lake.

    New to the boards here, and new to the BMW line of fun. :) Just got this for my wife about a week ago - love the bike! I am looking forward to getting the 800 for myself so we can go adventure together - snapped this pic recently.

    I think the bike is mounted ontop of his panniers, so there is room on the seat still.

    That would be the Eurofighter Typhoon made by British Aerospace and a consortium of other manufacturers across Europe. :evil

    The Saab Gripen is another beast altogether

    But neither are a patch on an F800GS with canards :D
