The F 800 GS has garnered awards from the top three US motorcycling publications. That's an Impressive trifecta win in 2009 for the BMW F 800 GS as it received "Motorcycle of the Year" from Rider Magazine, "Best Adventure Bike" from Motorcyclist and "Best Dual-Sport Bike" from Cycle World.

It's no surprise that the F 800 GS is so loved by diehard Enduro riders, with a lightweight design and eye-popping power, the F 800 GS is the most off-road oriented GS ever built. A vertical parallel-twin engine based on the proven F 800 ST platform offers 85 horses and 62 ft-lb of torque, delivering startling speed and acceleration. Add a dry weight of just 392 lbs, switchable ABS, wide foot rests and a below-the-seat gas tank, for a very low center of gravity, and the F 800 GS is a dual-sport bike with amazing handling and all the prowess of a GS in a lighter package.

For 2010 model year we are pleased to offer the F 800 GS in two new colors: Alpine White and Lava Orange Metallic/Black Satin. The new Lava Orange Metallic color was originally launched on the awesome K 1300 S and has proven to be highly popular and it's sure to add a hint of sportiness to the F 800 GS.

The 2010 F 800 GS wrapped in new colors is at BMW Motorcycle dealerships now. Visit your favorite BMW dealer and take a F 800 GS for an extended demo ride and find out for yourself why it's one of the most popular BMW's ever launched.
