BMW F800GS Adventure (2014-2015) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2014, the House of Munich released the BMW F800GS Adventure, a mid-sized adventure bike that debuted in 2013. The bike was based on the regular BMW F800GS but improved with better off-road capabilities.

Based on the GS, the adventure model delivered a combination of agility, touring practicality, and off-road capability. At its core was the same engine that powered the GS models, with electronic fuel injection, a catalytic converter, and a six-speed transmission.

In the performance department, the 2014 BMW F800GS Adventure had installed underneath its fuel tank a 798cc four-stroke twin-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a fuel injection system in charge, boasting 85 hp at 7,500 rpm and 83 Nm (61 lb-ft) torque at 5,750 rpm.

The bike's power was handled by a six-speed manual transmission with a wet multi-disc clutch and a final chain drive, spinning the rear wheel to a top speed of 199 kph (124 mph).

Like the GS, the Adventure model featured a robust torsionally resistant tubular steel frame and a reinforced rear subframe to fit the larger fuel tank for an increased range. It packed a one-piece dual seat, a small luggage rack, side brackets for panniers, a side stand, and wire-spoke wheels with off-road tires.

In addition, like all its siblings, the bike was available with a wide range of optional accessories and technologies, making it suitable for any task and fitting every rider's needs.
