AC Schnitzer F 800 Reloaded

AC Schnitzer's BMW F800 superbike, "Reloaded"
BMW’s F 800 series has been getting a lot of attention since the launch of the original S variant in 2006. And right now, the flavor of the month in Europe is the 87 bhp F 800 R roadster, as ridden by stuntman Chris Pfeiffer. Off-road specialists Touratech have already given their take on it with the ScrambleR, and now the BMW tuner AC Schnitzer has released the Reloaded. Somewhat dubious cosmetic modifications—a belly pan and fairing—amplify the ‘streetfighter’ look, but the suspension work is more interesting. There’s an adjustable ‘Fusion Spring Strut’ for the rear and new fork springs developed with the help of WP Suspension at the front. The bike also has black anodized superbike-style handlebars, and a road-legal ‘Stealth’ muffler with removable ‘DB-killer’, which will boost the power output a little. We’re surprised they haven’t done more with the engine, but maybe that’ll come later.
