F 850 GS

Adventure in the Blood.
You live for the challenge. Where others turn back, you ride on. Overcome boundaries and transform obstacles into possibilities atop the F 850 GS. If adventure flows through your veins, then this is the perfect companion to reach for the unknown. Let your attitude and curiosity spur you on - regardless of how far you want to travel.
The standard TFT Connectivity Display also ensures you stay up to date with navigation, telephone, media and vehicle data - intuitively controlled and without distractions. The F 850 GS allows you more time for what is important, discovering what lies over the horizon.
Even more GS.
The F 850 GS with its characteristic fly line is an excitingly aspirational look. When it comes to design, the sense of adventure is immediate as you look over all of the visual lines of the motorcycle. From the rear, to the front tank and right up to the GS-typical headlamps. The design elements are trimmed to off road riding, while you are prepared for adventure from head to toe.
In your element.
Your head is free, your gaze focused on the road ahead. Almost instinctively you steer, shift and brake the F 850 GS - an inimitable handling: you are in your element, fully focussed on your adventure. And thanks to the GS-typical ergonomics, you ride upright and confidently, meaning you always want to go on.
Ride in your mode.
The riding modes influence the throttle response and response characteristics of your F 850 GS. At the push of a button, the "Rain" and "Road" modes are ready for a wet or dry ride. The "Dynamic" mode gets the most out of your bike when you really want to accelerate on asphalt, while "Enduro" mode lets you conquer the gravel tracks of the world.
