Possibly My Next Bike - 2024 BMW F800GS Test Ride Review
A motorcycle that has caught my eye has been the new BMW F800GS released 2024. When my own BMW bike was in for a service I managed to get a test ride on one. This was courtesy of Charles Hurst BMW Motorrad. Thanks to Keiran who arranged the test ride and Paul in the dealership who dispatched me on the ride.
This video is just some rambling thought I had when riding the bike.
Any questions please ask in the comments below and I will get back to you as quickly as I can.

Nice to see you all out . Enjoy your trip just subed .Looking forwards to seeing more 👍👍
How do you edit/make your videos Gary? thanks
This video was filmed with 2 cameras. The off bike sections was filmed with a DJI Osmo Pocket camcorder. A tiny little thing the size of a mars bar. The on bike stuff was with a DJI Osmo Action with an adapter to allow a little lapel mic to be plugged in. It is then downloaded onto a PC and edited with software call Cyberlink Power Director. I hope that helps.
@@GaryGSF Thanks Gary, I will look up that Cyberlink Power Director, I have a lot of footage I need to make something of to free up my SD cards!!
@@roadwarrior8560 Cyberlink have really good tutorial videos on UA-cam.
@@GaryGSF Thanks buddy, I'll check that out.
Great review Gary from Belfast to the Castlereagh Hills down the Gransha Road to Pear Tree Hill which was my old stomping ground. I used to fly down Pear tree hill into Comber then Newtownards. If your thinking of changing get a bigger after market screen. The fork and knife won't let me get another bike after 45 of them.👋
It is an area I am very familar with. Some great road. I love the Knockbracken Road near Purdysburn, although it can be plagued with traffic. As I have just put a pipe on the F900XR, I think I will keep it for a while but that F800GS will be on the hit list. Hopefully China will start making a taller screen for the GS as I have 2 of different heights for the XR as well as the standard one. Each screen came in around £26 inc VAT & delivery. My wife knows not to tell me to be without my bikes. Deffo shaky ground LOL.
Great review. Now looking forward to our post cruise wind down there next year. Thank you very much 👍
Have a wonderful cruise and stay. Will be back in this hotel after our cruise next year. Thanks so much for watching.
Nice one
Well done Gary i,m having a beer now fantastic to see you again. Rain always pours down in Northern Ireland but that is why we have the best countryside in the World.
After that trip I think I'll leave having a beer for a few days. If you didn't get rained on when riding a bike in NI you'd never go out. Thanks for watching.
How are thiings?!Garygsf~ Bravo,you shared good trip! see ya,💯
Things are great. Thanks for taking the time to watch my video.
Hotel Bali famous for Cardiac Hill which leads down to to the beach, easy going down, nightmare coming up! Been once, never again, food also awful! Good video though.
The hill is a challenge but at the top of it you have a real excuse to get a cold beer. I found the breakfasts not so good but at dinner I always found something I liked. Thanks for watching Dave and taking the time to leave a comment.
Hi GaryGSF, I’m Anton Severinsson (CirciutKings), and I’m working on a video about motorsport crashes. I would love to use this clip in my crash compilation. Would that be fine? I will, of course, give full credit and link back to your original video. Thank you so much for your time and consideration! Best regards, Anton Severinsson (CirciutKings)
That will be fine. Feel free to use it
Are you able to adjust the angle of the screen, if so, how much?
You can adjust the angle to suit you. I looked online and it can be got for less than £70
@@GaryGSF Sorry, I meant to say how much can you tilt the screen by?
@@MrEdwardGaming I really cant be sure as I set it to a position I felt that was good for me and never moved it. Sorry I cant be of more help.
Hi Gary, great video. I’m looking to take my 84 year old dad to benalmedina in September. Do you know if it’s possible to hire disability scooters there? Many thanks.
There are many different mobility scooter hire locations in Benalmadena. I have noticed that most hotels have deals with providers and you can organise through them, although I'm sure they are on commission. The are quite a few websites you can book through also. Have a wonderful holiday.
All the " Bullshit" extras which should be standard. Look at the value Now .( Try selling it) 100 on autotrader ,e,bay .Been there months NOT SOLD.. Obviously more money than brain. QED
I totally agree. All the stuff I put on the F900 was pretty inexpensive. The Comfort Pack on the F900 is useless but it was on the bike when I bought it 9 months old. The pannier racks do not come with the expensive panniers and the sat nav mount doesn't come with the sat nav unit, which is over £600. My bike will never see one. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.
With this screen consumption increases or decreases
On this SH350i I saw no noticeable difference but when I fitted one to an SH125i I had a few years ago the top speed increased a little. I would think I does help it a little.
Beemer is mint Gary.😀
Thanks for that. I'm really enjoying it.
Gary thinking about a BBQ your in Belfast not far date but between now and the end of June. Have a beer and hang out motorbikes will come on the top of the agenda.
@@Colin-ci5ll I certainly look forward to a catch up. Keep me up to date of what's happening and hopefully we can meet up.
Can you please show what each mode does. Or at least tell me what driving mode does? I will be using it on my helmet while riding my motorcycle. I don’t plan on making content. Just to show friends, stream (screen record the app while on a call). Etc. So what should I use for a mix of both good quality and long battery life? 2.7 60? Great video! Also what is loop mode and would I be better off using that when riding, then just recording a long video, then deleting everytime?
I have given the camera to a friend so I can't do a video on it again. Driving mode is where it is wired to your car and starts recording when it gets power from the ignition. When the SD card is full it writes over the oldest file. Loop mode is similar but it only starts when you press the record button. I think 2.7k 30fps is good quality and keeps the file size down a bit. I go at 4k 30fps as I am not too concerned about file size since I run a 128Gb sd card. I hope this helps.
@@GaryGSF I have a 128gb sd so maybe I shouldn’t be worried either. How big of a difference in battery and file size is 4k/30fps and 2.7k/60fps? Also I still can’t seem to figure out what “loop” is. Would I be better off just starting to record when I take off on my bike? It only last 90 mins but better than nothing. What mode is best?
@@The_Eric12 I have never used loop but I believe when the card is full it starts recording over the oldest file. I don't think there is much to be gained on battery life switching to 2.7k 60fps. It may even be harder than 4k 30fps. Again it could have bigger file sizes as it is recording 60 frames rather than 30. 90 minutes is quite a long time at 60fps for an action camera battery. My DJI action only tops out around 60fps.
@@GaryGSF oh that’s very interesting I’ll look into that thank you! So you would just say to record a regular video when I go out? Then delete it if I don’t want it and repeat?
@@The_Eric12 That is what I do. If I am recording for a specific purpose I keep it on a hard drive but generally I look at it and then delete it.
Hi Gary last time i saw you was on holiday hope you had a good one also from Northern Ireland. Great video😀
Hi Colin. I always have a great holiday as I'm sure you do. Thanks so much for your kind comments.
Thank you Gary.
Hi Gary lovely we place is that been there a few times when I’ve been over at the Road Races, thanks for the video 👍
It's one of my favourite ride outs from home. It's about 155 miles round trip. It's only about 8 miles from the Armoy circuit which races takes place there at the end of next month. I'm hoping your recovery is still going in the right direction. Take care and thanks so much for watching.
Many thanks for that Gary.
I'm glad to be of help. Thanks for watching.
Last month i go with my family to Canary Islands and recorded all with this camcorder at VGA and later with and editor the results was very nostalgic, retro and cool. I have also an Kodak c913 that records on 320x240 but drains cells more fast than the zx1.
The VGA videos were great in their day. One I loved was the 808 keychain camera bought from China for less than £5. It was the size of a pebble and put out really good video. I must get a look at the C913. Sounds like one for the collection. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.
@@GaryGSF Really cool that 808, it's very small. The Kodak c913 it's a basic compact camera with several scenes to picture and 2 modes of video resolution and powered by 2 AA cells like the zx1. Also have optical zoom. I recommended It to you. Thanks for your videos and reviews. Greetings from Andalusia 💪🏻
@@intherior The little Kodak C913 looks like a great little pocket camera. I visit Andalusia several times a year to Costa del Sol. It is a lovely place and so pretty outside the tourist areas. Greetings from Northern Ireland.
@@GaryGSF wooow next time you visit Costa del Sol say me and we can record any video comparison cameras 💪🏻
can't find any screen so cheap on aliexpress, can you provide link for this one?
I got the mid sized one from Shop910733104 Store there and it is my favourite. The one in this video is no longer available. I hope this helps. I'm not sure I can share a direct link on YT. Thanks for watching.

Great video Gary, love flying into Malaga with the woman and our four young kids, we always stay in either ocean house or sol timor, curious of your preference in staying down in benalmadena or montemar, I like the buzz of Montemar but thinking of down towards Benalmadena next
Thanks for this Barry. I still prefer Montemar to Benalmadena and love the Sol Timor for self catering as there are so many food options. Also like the Buensol in Montemar too. Only booked the Bali as I got a good deal and would go again if the deal was right again but I do prefer Montemar.
Good review thanks

Hello Gary! Gary, I just bought a Wolfang GA420 and this is my first action camera. I am having issues with the image stabilization. All my videos have been shaky. I am not sure if I am setting it up correctly or not. Could you explain the steps to go through for quality image stabilization? Thank you for any suggestions. And thank you for your excellent review.
The image stabilisation is accessed by hitting the little cog on the screen and the second item down is the image stabilisation section. Tap it and tap on and that should be it enabled. It helps but it has limitations. I hope this helps.
@@GaryGSF Thanks Gary for your reply. Unfortunately I have done everything that you have stated in turning on the stabilization mode feature and my videos are still very shaky. I thought maybe I had missed something in activating the stabilization mode. I have compared my video clips with others who have posted videos on UA-cam using the GA420 and the quality of steadiness of my videos is terrible. I just recently contacted Wolfang about this issue, but I have not had a reply back from them yet. Again I really do appreciate your help and instruction. Best regards! Roger
This is a selfish villain. This person has no understanding of public roads.
I was there at York corner , Davey walked away from this crash then went out to win next race . Class
Great save, #16
Great vid Gary. Very informative for folks who are thinking of booking the Bali. The interior of the hotel looks a tad barren and a few wall hangings would improve the overall appearance. Pity about the flights. It is a toss up every time any of us flies to foreign parts. Really enjoyed watching . Cheers
Thanks for watching. The hotel had a few little faults but not in areas that would have taken away from comfort. The flights were poor. I suppose they were budget flights. Still had a good time though.
Good for you Gary been to Benalmadena lol a few times on holiday. Nice beeches a bit stoney and hilly but you will enjoy the craic and food,
It was a great time thanks. For the infirm the hills are a problem but we managed (only just)! Thanks for watching.
