BMW F 900 GS Adventure 2024

BMW F 900 GS Adventure 2024

The small Adventure looks really big even next to an R 1300 GS. The bike offers a high level of riding comfort combined with accessible handling. However, due to the huge tank and the ponderous front end, it loses a significant advantage of the F 900 GS - it is not a lighter-footed alternative to a large Adventure.

Off-road and when manoeuvring, the bike feels tiring and heavy
