The BMW F800GS was an off-road-oriented motorcycle manufactured from 2008 to 2019, part of the F series, which comprised several models with similar appearances and different engine displacements.
In 2010, the German motorcycle manufacturer launched the BMW F800GS. Compared to the more sportier F800S model, the GS version packed a longer suspension travel for more off-road capabilities.
In the visual department, the bike packed standard features, including a front mudguard, a front fairing with an extended beak, a small windscreen, a one-piece dual seat with passenger grab handles, a small luggage rack, an up-swept exhaust system, and lightweight wire-spoke wheels.
The bike's suspension was handled by a 43 mm upside-down Marzocchi telescopic fork on the front with 230 mm wheel travel and a single shock absorber on the rear with 215 mm wheel travel, delivering excellent suspension performance and handling.
As for the braking power, the bike's wheels were fitted with two 300 mm discs with four-piston calipers on the front and a 265 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the rear, delivering excellent stopping power.
As for the power figures, the 2010 BMW F800GS had its soul brought to life by a 798cc four-stroke twin-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a fuel injection system in charge, delivering an output power of 85 hp at 7,500 rpm and 84 Nm (62 lb-ft) torque at 5,750 rpm.
