BMW is working on a new hard core off-road model of F 850 GS which is the adventure variant and it was spied earlier this year in Greece. The new model has been officially certified by Environment Protection Agency (EPA) of US as 2019 model, so we can confirm that BMW will officially reveal the new F 850 GS Adventure at an upcoming motor show which is either Intermot in October or EICMA in November.
BMW officially revealed F 850 GS and F 750 GS last year at EICMA as replacement models for F 800 GS and F 700 GS respectively. Even though both these models sales have begun in Europe earlier this year, the company didn’t introduce these models in US. The German manufacturer was waiting for the new adventure model to come as they want to introduce all these models at the same time and to give some time for dealers to clear current stocks of old models also.
