The new range of ADV bikes will replace the BMW F 850 GS range from the Indian market. The styling of the F 900 GS series is sharper and sportier than its predecessor. In fact, the new bike looks sleeker and has a more rally-focused design language. All-LED lighting comes standard and so does a crisp TFT screen replacing the older LCD unit. Powering the F 900 GS duo is a larger 895cc, parallel-twin motor churning out producing 105 bhp at 8,500 rpm and 93 Nm at 6,750 rpm, a significant 10 bhp jump over the F 850 GS. It also gets Rain and Road ride modes, while cornering ABS and dynamic traction control are standard.

Prices for the BMW F 900 GS series will be revealed by the end of this month.
