For people who think no destination is too far and no distance too remote. Experience the world with a companion that's so reliable, robust and powerful that it can even keep up with your curiosity. Introducing the new F 850 GS Adventure.

The "global player" among the globetrotters.

With it, you defy wind and weather, are prepared for the most challenging terrain and experience the adventures of the world with the greatest possible comfort. Among other things, this is ensured by the large, height-adjustable touring windscreen, the standard comfort rider's seat and the large 6.1 gallon fuel tank. For a relaxed ride through wild terrain, your F 850 GS Adventure comes with durable engine protection bars and practical stainless steel luggage rack, in preparation for the aluminum top case. Everything made for your tour through the world with this "global player".

The drive: the will to discover.

It wants to get out into the world: the powerful, newly developed parallel twin engine with 90 hp gives you and your thirst for discovery the right drive. The new engine concept impresses with powerful sound, stronger performance with 90 hp at 8,000 rpm and smooth performance – with a moderate consumption of 57 mpg (according to WMTC). This Enduro has enough power for any off-road challenge – wherever you want to take it.

Features may include:

  • 21-inch-front-wheel and cross-spoked rims.

The 21-inch-front-wheel and the cross-spoked rims are made for off-roading.

  • Touring windscreen including adjuster.

The adjustable touring windscreen allows for quick adaptation to different conditions. Less wind resistance and more weather protection mean more relaxed riding and increased comfort - especially on long tours.

  • Comfort seat as a standard feature.

The standard comfortable rider's seat ensures a fatigue-free ride. Ideal for those long hours in the saddle and another example of extremely well-thought-out ergonomics.

  • Increased range thanks to 6.1 gallon tank.

Increased range for more adventure: thanks to the larger tank, you're well prepared for adventures that take you on long rides to the most remote places in the world.

  • Engine guard and engine protection bars as standard features.

With the standard plastic engine guard made or the optional stainless steel engine guard, the F 850 GS Adventure is better protected against stone chips and scratches. Robust and suitable for world travel.

  • Standard LED headlight.

The LED headlights in a modern design illuminate the world ahead and increase active safety.

  • Extensive storage space.

With the sturdy storage, your equipment is always well protected, even on rough terrain. The standard stainless steel luggage rack is the robust holder for the optional aluminum cases.

  • Powerful engine.

Water-cooled, 2-cylinder, four-stroke engine with four cam-operated valves per cylinder, two overhead camshafts and dry-sump lubrication. Rated at 90 hp (70 kW) at 8,000 rpm and 63 lb-ft of torque at 6,250 rpm.
