Yes I do the like the black, almost as much as my white! Mmmm, no I am not trading mine in next year!
However, they should have left that frame black though...

I was expecting more of an update to pinch back sales from the Tiger, BM have known the bits that need attention since the bikes launch and have never bothered to improve them.
The black looks good but it makes no production sense having a gray swing arm if the rest of the range retain the black.
When I saw the anniversary model and the later white bikes it was almost enough to make me buy one, the black is not having the same effect.

The triple black F800GS does look great

The F650GS sun yellow and black looks good and nice to see the yellow back its oh so BMW about time they put it on the F650GS (twin), I see thay have added the Beak extender (copy cats )

Heres my black and blue with extender and Rally Mudguard once my wires are fitted It will be a double black n blue

Just received a message from Allan Jefferies about the new colours, available for September The F800GS, now available in Graphitan Metallic Matt

The following picture was included but was not mentioned.

Looks good, but not as good as a GS800 painted in Dakar colours.

It looks like the Rugged Roads Rectifier Guard - see here Although it shows it as silver in the picture it is black in real life, my wife has just brought one for her F650GS (Twin)

Updated the thread to include embedded photos.

Not sure about the grey frame and swinging arm, sort of negates the idea of triple black. Grey wheels on the Sun Yellow isn't what I would have chosen. Exhaust downpipes seem to have lost their golden glow.

 

[StumpyFingers]

I think they have spoilt the look by changing the frame and swinging arm colours.
