BMW Motorrad celebrates 40 years of BMW GS

To date, BMW Motorrad has delivered more than 1.2 million BMW GS models.

The story started in autumn 1980, when BMW Motorrad presented the R 80 G/S, a motorcycle which combined two very special areas of riding for the first time: Off-road and on-road.

In 1981 Hubert Auriol rode to victory in the equally prestigious and challenging Paris - Dakar Rally: one of the many motorsport successes that BMW Motorrad was able to celebrate with a GS.While this bike drew its riding dynamics from its low weight and the thrust of the 47 hp single cylinder, the changing of the guard took place simultaneously on the BMW GS models with boxer engine.

BMW Motorrad consistently built on the typical GS strengths in the successor models to the successful 2-cylinder F 650 GS, F 700 GS and F 800 GS motorcycles with the aim of making good things even better. It generated 57 kW for the F 750 GS and 70 kW for the F 850 GS from 853 cc, thus providing superior drive power for both GS models.In autumn 2018, BMW Motorrad once again introduced a radical upgrade for the boxer engine of the large GS models in order to further improve power and torque yield as well as reduce fuel consumption and emission values.
