BMW F 800GS Adventure (2016)

BMW has taken the F 800GS to new heights with the introduction of the F 800GS Adventure, a motorcycle that embodies the perfect blend of on-road comfort and off-road capability. The 798cc parallel-twin engine, with its signature punchy throttle response and smooth power delivery, is a joy to ride on both asphalt and dirt.

This middleweight adventure bike offers a more affordable entry point into the world of long-distance travel, with a more manageable 6.3-gallon fuel tank and a range of touring amenities, including a larger windscreen, hand guards, and a more comfortable seat.

The F 800GS Adventure also boasts a host of off-road focused features, including tubular engine guards, a nylon sump protector, and beefier subframe, making it an ideal choice for riders who want to explore the world’s most challenging terrain without breaking the bank.

The result is a motorcycle that excels in both on-road comfort and off-road capability, making it the perfect choice for riders who want to take on the world’s most epic adventures without sacrificing practicality.
