reliable and robust companion for unbounded adventure.
Power: Uncompromising
Powered
by the potent 85 hp parallel twin engine, the F 800 GS Adventure helps
you leave civilization behind with ease. And with a torque of 61 lb/ft,
this enduro has enough power reserve to overcome even the toughest
off-road challenge with supreme confidence. Thanks to a 6.3-gallon tank
and fuel economy of 55 mpg at 55 mph, it can cover distances where
others have already run dry.
Control: Unconditional
Be
it sand dunes, mountain passes or river crossings, the F 800 GS
Adventure can master any task it may be faced with in faraway places.
Its core is the torsion-resistant tubular steel frame with spring travel
of 9.1 inches at the front and 8.5 inches at the rear. The rider is
supported with the optional “Enduro mode” which optimizes ASC traction
control and ABS on loose surfaces. ABS is of course a standard feature.
Character: Unequalled
The
F 800 GS Adventure is a true globetrotter from the high windshield to
its combined fuel tank protector and saddle bag mountings. In spite of
its striking side panels and the larger fuel tank, the distinctive
flyline makes the F 800 GS adventure a clear member of the GS family.
This motorcycle strives to conquer the world, whether in Sandrover Matte
or dynamic Racing Red.
