BMW F 850 GS Adventure 2023

Packed with technical features and additional equipment, the "small" Adventure is a high-tech machine. The many functions work well, and our testers were particularly impressed by the electronic chassis and the silky-smooth running of the engine. The Asian origin of the engine is not noticeable. The larger tank of the Adventure version and all the accessories drive up both the weight and the price. At 244 kg, the BMW F 850 GS Adventure is a bulky lump, which doesn't please everyone. But the ergonomics are top-notch, and the seating position in the wide fairing conveys a feeling of safety and protection.

If you want, you can also conquer tough off-road terrain with it. However, if you don't have to cover long distances, you will prefer the lightness of the standard T7. The World Raid's wide tank is noticeable in its ergonomics and handling. The soft suspension, on the other hand, copes well with tough off-road terrain and, thanks to the steering damper, the bike remains very stable even on fast-flowing dirt tracks. The complicated deactivation procedure for the ABS is annoying in the long run, and a simple "off" button would be nice. All in all, the World Raid lives up to its name, especially for world travellers, and is very well thought out in this respect with a wide range and plenty of off-road comfort.
