Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW G 650 GS 2011

BMW G 650 GS 2011

His little one has been perfectly introduced to life as a journalist press vehicle. Nothing can shake it now. The thing about the careful running-in on the first kilometres should not be overrated, the GS apparently also copes with the hard instant variation.

Ideal, fully-fledged entry-level motorbike

positive riding experience

optimum chassis

plenty of comfort.

Fuel consumption could be slightly lower.

BMW F 850 GS Adventure 2021

BMW F 850 GS Adventure 2021

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.

Silky-smooth engine

top ergonomics and comfort

absolutely suitable for touring

suitable for off-road

technically very mature

High price with additional equipment

engine exudes little emotion

fork not adjustable

quite high weight
