Buyer’s Guide Model Detail

Buyer's Guide > F800GT
Colours shown may not be available in Canada.
While not as flashy as BMW's high-end sport-touring bikes, the F800GT offers a more affordable alternative, based around the company's sturdy parallel twin engine. It's pretty stylish and can be accessorized to handle cross-country rides too. The GT gets ride-by-wire throttle in 2017, two riding modes (Rain and Road) as standard, and a third mode (Dynamic) as an option. There's also a new exhaust, some cosmetic changes, new gauges, and other odds and ends.
