Had a squizz at the Haynes circuit diagram last night. (The relevant wiring diagram is on page 8.30 of the Haynes manual.) Your procedure will be as follows: Disconnect the battery negative terminal. Disconnect the front wheel speed sensor from the wiring harness. Disconnect the multi-pin plug from the ABS control unit.
Old habits were re-learned and old limits were re-evaluated. Old gravel and dirt roads are where the F800GS shines. Plenty of power and good stability make for a surprisingly quick ride. The 800GS turns okay, all things considered, and is surprisingly stable at speed in the dirt.

2013 BMW F 800 GS Road Test. By Trevor Hedge. This sounds more like a review of why the F 800 GS is not a good a motorcycle as the R 1200 GS, rather than a standalone examination of the
