The bikes in their new look, appear dynamic with a masculine design. The design with its iconic features such as the asymmetric headlight and the GS-typical flyline make it immediately clear that they belong to the BMW Motorrad GS family. In Rallye style and Racing Blue metallic colour, the BMW F 850 GS together with the hand-protector bars, black fixed fork tubes, emphasises its sporty character. The gold rims and galvanised radiator cowl accentuate its luxury feel.

The new BMW F 850 GS Adventure in Rallye style and Kalamata metallic matt paintwork signifies sporty talents and a sense of adventure. With its gold rims and fixed fork tubes, it appears exquisite. The other alternative in the BMW F 850 GS Adventure is the Style Triple Black in the aggressive Black Storm metallic colour scheme.

As before, the powerful, liquid-cooled 4-valve, 2-cylinder engine with 853 cc capacity, fuel injection and six-speed gearbox in both the models ensures vigorous propulsion. Thanks to two counterbalance shafts, it delights with its smoothness, spontaneous response characteristics, impressive pulling power and low fuel consumption.
