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.

It's amazing how much an unagitated, practical all-round motorbike like the Suzuki V-Strom 800DE can get into your heart. It doesn't flaunt its performance figures, it doesn't impress with its futuristic design, it doesn't clamour for attention. Instead, it does something much more important: it becomes more familiar, more reliable, more likeable with every kilometre ridden. After days of intensive use through challenging off-road terrain, this bike has turned out to be what you need most on long journeys - an unagitated, robust, uncompromising partner that simply works.
