The factory BMW F 450 GS continues to have an X-shaped LED headlamp, a beak-like front end and a lofty posture. It facilitates seamless clutch-less gear changes when used in conjunction with the Shift Assistant Pro. This technology is standard on the top GS Trophy model, although it will be optional on the lower trim levels.
The adv weighs only 178 kg when it is ready to ride and is constructed on a brand-new tubular steel frame. KYB components with a monoshock in the back and 43 mm upside-down forks up front handle suspension duties. It resembles a GS exactly, but it has been shrunk down for greater usage. A recently created 420 cc parallel-twin motor with a 135-degree crankpin offset powers it. According to the company, it provides the engine a more captivating character while effectively controlling vibrations with a balancing shaft.
With a six-speed transmission and a slipper/assist clutch as standard, the powerplant generates 48 horsepower and 43 Nm. With a stated range that easily surpasses 350 kilometres in foreign markets, fuel economy is measured at about 3.8 litres per 100 kilometres. BMW’s semi-automatic clutch configuration, which minimises the need for manual clutch use during starts, traffic riding and off-road manoeuvres, is one of its important characteristics.
