The all-new BMW F 750 GS and F 850 GS motorcycles, which were unveiled at the 2017 EICMA motorcycle show, are reportedly heading to India. Latest reports suggest that the BMW Motorrad’s middleweight adventure duo will reach Indian shores at the 2018 Auto Expo in Delhi.
Both the motorcycles will reportedly arrive via the CBU route and will be the most affordable products in BMW Motorrad’s India product portfolio. The new motorcycles will compete against the new Triumph Tiger 800 range and thus we expect the prices for the BMW F 750 GS to hover around INR 11 lakh-12 lakh while the F 850 GS may arrive in the INR 12 lakh-13 lakh range.
The new F 750 GS and F 850 GS are targeted squarely at their respective clientele. The F 750 GS is designed for all riders who prefer the sensation and conceptual design of a travel enduro in combination with a low seat height, abundant power, high cost-effectiveness, and powerful all-round qualities. On the other hand is the new F 850 GS, which besides offering more power and torque, features even more distinctive touring characteristics coupled with supreme off-road ability.
