See you at my intervention!
Have you spent time 2up? Just wondering how it is for a passenger and how the power is (loaded down).One big difference between the F800 and FZ-8 is much better MPG on the F. Engine CR is the same, FI mapping and taller final gearing may be the diff.
Haven't ridden a FZ but the fun factor on my beemer is quite good. The exhaust note (w/o the CAT) is spot on at any rev position, the 6 speed is
smooth and fun to work up and down the shift pattern. Never a boring ride.
My one big problem w/BMW is maintenance manuals do not exist. Honda is info overload; the exact opposite.
When (not if) Honda comes out w/the next gen ST, I may keep the F800. It fills a unique niche all to itself, IMO, especially w/the BMW badging.
