Buyer’s Guide Model Detail

Buyer's Guide > F800GS
Colours shown may not be available in Canada.
BMW's F800GS is considered a practical alternative for riders who consider the R1200 GS too beastly and too costly for off-road use. It's surprisingly competent in the dirt (save for soft front wheel rims), and offers all-day comfort on the street. For 2016 it gets a minor cosmetic makeover.
