BMW F800GS (2013-2014) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2013, the German motorcycle manufacturer launched the BMW F800GS, an off-road-oriented machine that debuted in 2008 and continued production until 2019. The bike was part of the F series, comprised of several models with different engine displacements and similar appearances.

The BMW F800GS was the sportier model in the GS family. For 2013, it received several modifications, including the front section of the body along with a new fuel tank trim, intake snorkel, upper mudguard, and a new windscreen that gave the machine an extra dash of dynamic performance and pointing out the off-road side on the bike.

In addition, the bike was available with optional lowering, which meant that the already low seat could be even lower. Also, Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) was offered as standard, while Electronic Suspension Adjustment (ESA) and Automatic Stability Control (ASC) were optional, offering a higher level of comfort and safety.

In the performance department, the 2013 BMW F800GS had installed underneath its fuel tank a 798cc four-stroke twin-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a fuel injection system in charge, delivering 85 hp at 7,500 rpm and 83 Nm (61 lb-ft) torque at 5,750 rpm.

The bike's engine was coupled to a six-speed manual transmission with a wet multi-plate clutch, linked to the rear wheel through a final chain drive, pushing the motorcycle to 199 kph (124 mph).
