Already a tried and tested concept, the F series is unveiling three variations here, fervently embraced by motorcycle enthusiasts in recent years and further refined by BMW Motorrad for model year 2021. All three models appear fresher and more dynamic thanks to new colour schemes and provide an even more intense GS experience with expanded standard equipment and new optional equipment.

General changes to the BMW F 750 GS, BMW F 850 GS and BMW F 850 GS Adventure include new tape designs and the respective style designation on the fairing side panels of the style variations. Furthermore, all models now have new LED flashing turn indicators as standard and a USB charging device at the front right of the cockpit.

As before, the powerful, liquid-cooled 4-valve, 2-cylinder engine with 853 cc capacity, fuel injection and six-speed gearbox in all three models ensures vigorous propulsion. It is already designed to meet the future Euro 5 emission standard and thanks to two counterbalance shafts, delights with its smoothness, spontaneous response characteristics, impressive pulling power and low fuel consumption.

The BMW F 850 GS and the BMW F 850 GS Adventure still generate 70 kW (95 hp) at 8,250 rpm and 92 Nm at 6,250 rpm.

Although the 2022 BMW F 850 GS Adventure doesn’t have any mechanical updates, the optional Packages have been updated. Also, the colors are all-new for ’22.

In the new basic Ice grey paintwork with tank centre cover painted in the vehicle colour, the new BMW F 850 GS Adventure fulfils your aspirations for adventure, offroad competence and touring capability. The black fixed fork tubes and rims and grey-black comfort seat blend in homogeneously and harmoniously.

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, the new BMW F 850 GS Adventure appears both dynamic and exquisite at the same time.

The new BMW F 850 GS Adventure as "40 Years GS Edition" is also dedicated to the special anniversary of the BMW GS models. The "40 Years GS" logo and yellow hand-protector bars are distinctive hallmarks of the anniversary GS in Black storm metallic paintwork. Black-coated fixed fork tubes, gold rims and a black/yellow upholstered seat bench for two with 860 mm seat height round off the BMW F 850 Adventure’s tribute to the GS family’s 40th anniversary.

An extra low seat bench as well as modified lowered suspension will be available as optional equipment for all three models in future ensuring even better ground accessibility when stationary.

Original BMW Motorrad Accessories now supply a holder for the BMW F 850 GS and BMW F 850 GS Adventure for mounting the BMW Motorrad Navigator above the standard TFT display, which is beneficial when the driver is stationary offroad . This holder was previously reserved exclusively for GS trophy machines and deployment vehicles. The ex works "Preparation for navigation device" optional equipment is still available for positioning on the handlebar clamp as before.
