It provides good information but the image quality is lousy
It helps you to know how to change a tire, oil, filters, repair a puncture, lube the chain and gives you advice of important equipments to have in an adveture ride by interviewing a few bike adventurers. The guy is funny and all the information is given in a funny way. Too bad the video resolution is lousy, especially if you have a large TV.

A little disappointed
I enjoyed the videos but found them limited in their information. I was hoping to get some riding tips and issues specific to the F800GS rather than the very basics of how to change the filters and oil.Although I found some parts informative, I found the instruction in some cases to be long winded, i.e. the showing of how to change a flat tyre in two difference areas of the same DVD.

BMW F800GS Just Do IT Manual!
For those riders who have discovered the sheer magic of this new bike from BMW, they will obviously want to use it in far more remote places than your other bike (in my case the Harley). This DVD is a folksy but accurate and very useful way to learn how to change the tyres and do all the other basic maintenance that you will need to know to go offroad. For a screwdriver klutz like me, this is a real gem. Thank you.

Adventure Touring
This video has good information for those just entering the adventure touring riding. Even though this is BMW F800 specific it also has general information useful to all who want to explore off-road riding. I found the Bio's of different riders and the modifications done to their F800's very interesting. It was helpful in making a more informed decision in my personal modification choices.

Its ok
Not a great DVD but does work to a degree. The author/writer is a great guy with tons of experience but this DVD is a serious stretch to illustrate his competence.

...
I bought this soon as I bought the motorcycle F800GS. I watched and personally I consider it realized not professionally. Way too much Touratech hidden advertise.I watched the oil change and was done in a silly manner: spilled oil on pipes and bash plate ... not acceptable.I am sure they could fit the data on one DVD not 2 DVDsIt was a waste of my money. I learned nothing. I would prefer to see those mechanical operations done by a mechanic not by a clown.

Good info.
Helge is a wonderful teacher, we bought a used 09 F800 and he was able to answer many questions through this video.
