MW Motorrad's GS line is its
most prized possession. Those
two letters of G and S are what
saved BMW Motorrad from oblivion in the
early 1980s with the introduction of the
R80G/S, going on to spawn not just a new
line of motorcycles but an entirely new rid-
ing culture of grand adventuring.
The GS line is now seven motorcycles
strong, starting with the baby G 310 GS
and ending with the granddaddy R 1250 GS
Adventure. Nestled nicely in between this
is the bike formerly known as the F 700,
growing by 50 to be now known as the F
750 GS.
Like the recently revamped 1250 GS,
it's more than just a name change for the
middleweight road/adventure steed. The F
750 GS has been redesigned for the first
time in 10 years, with an all-new engine, a
new chassis and suspension, new electron-
ics and a huge TFT dash display that's one
of the coolest items on the market today.
With a clean sheet of paper,
BMW is putting some new
charge back into their trusty
middleweight adventure steed.
Say hello to the BMW F 750 GS.

Tarmac is where
the 750 GS shines
but you can get a
few jollies on dirt
roads as well. Just
not too many.
