I wonder how much work that would be to do. Or on a F800GS :evil

Seeing where he lives... Prolly a DMC (Dauntless) Rig.

I've ridden the DMC KLR/DMC enduro outfit, and I found it quite handy. The KLR has about 50% more HP than a Ural, and the car is much lighter.

However, since the DMC enduro car is designed for a 650 single, I suspect it would be too light for a BMW 800 (including the "F650" twin that's actually a detuned 800cc twin)

The weight of the F650GS singles is 426#. The weight of the F650GS twin is 438#.
So I wouldn't think the 12# weight diffrence would be an issue.

I could understand it being much easier to get into trouble because of the additional power of the twin.

I put 45K miles on a F650 single and I now have 21K miles on a F650GS twin. The twin easily does things the single always felt strained doing. I really liked the single, but I absolutely love the twin!
