Reach the next level

Everything is designed with your needs in mind: next-level driving comfort. The innovative Telelever bearing offers excellent handling. The GS Flyline with an extra-flat tank seat line provides a new kind of freedom of movement, easy manoeuvring, and a relaxed posture. The broad range of ergonomical options helps riders with varying needs to conquer any terrain. Thanks to the environmental sensor system of the optional Riding Assistant, you can see everything at a glance.

Condensed to the essence of the GS spirit

Time for new adventures. Thanks to Keyless Ride, you can simply climb on and start riding. You get comfortable on the standard rider's seat with a variable seat height of 800 to 890 mm. You activate the turn indicator that is integrated into the hand protector and turn off towards freedom. With every metre you ride, it becomes clearer to you: You are sitting on something truly unique. That’s how simple it can be – true greatness doesn’t have to mean bigger. There are no superfluous parts, everything is condensed to encapsulate the essence of GS: the pure joy of riding.

The Automated Shift Assistant (ASA)

Driving off and stopping is easier than ever before with the automatic clutch operation. As an alternative to changing gears manually using the gearshift lever, the gearshift process can also be done fully automatically, meaning that you can concentrate fully on your adventure.

The automated shift assistant elevates your riding experience to a new level with precise gearshift processes. Depending on the riding mode you have selected, you can look forward to perfect gear changes and a relaxed ride in every situation.

Stay in control at all times

In off-road terrain, you can’t always control what the trail ahead will bring. However, you do have full control of your bike – and you can take charge in any situation. Among other reasons, this is due to the concentrated vehicle mass in connection with a low vehicle weight. The easy handling and optimal freedom of movement can also be attributed to the flat tank platform and the short rear. The impressive riding stability is provided by the unique BMW EVO Telelever, among other things. Additionally, the conceptual division of the seat provides more ergonomical variation. Anything fits, anything goes.

There are no obstacles

When you’re on the road, it’s up to you. Your job: dream bigger. My job: provide enough drive to make anything possible. The powerful 145 hp engine and the low vehicle weight give you the power you need. You can feel the impressive character of the latest generation of boxer in every speed range. Experience outstanding performance and impressive control while running even more smoothly at lower speeds.

Be courageous

Expand your comfort zone. The flat tank platform and the short rear offer you the highest degree of freedom of movement. The optional large frame guard offers protection, even when performing ambitious manoeuvres. The high rider's seat with a seat height of 870 mm in combination with the Sport passenger seat provide the aesthetic and ergonomics of a Rallye seat, and in connection with the seat cover that runs up to the tank cover, it forms a perfectly useful unit. The conceptual division of the seat allows for greater ergonomic variance using the integrated seat incline adjustment for the rider's seat.
