Features

Features

  • THE DESIGN - GS TROPHY: The colors, the graphics, and the inscription show you what your bike can achieve off-road at a glance.
  • EQUIPPED FOR ALL CHALLENGES - WITH RADIATOR GRILLE GUARDS: Ready for tough off-road runs: The radiator grille guards that are installed on the GS Trophy as standard offer protection against damage from stone chips, for example.
  • STAY IN CONTROL AT ALL TIMES: In off-road terrain, you can’t always control what the trail ahead will bring. However, you do have full control of your bike – and you can take charge in any situation. Among other reasons, this is due to the concentrated vehicle mass in connection with a low vehicle weight. The easy handling and optimal freedom of movement can also be attributed to the flat tank platform and the short rear. The impressive riding stability is provided by the unique BMW EVO Telelever, among other things. Additionally, the conceptual division of the seat provides more ergonomical variation. Anything fits, anything goes.
  • JUST FOLLOW YOUR INSTINCTS: Whatever you have planned, the right drive can help you achieve it. The 145 hp boxer gives you everything you could ever want. Especially off-road, you can appreciate the confidence and control you have over the engine. The ShiftCam technology ensures a comfortably smooth and quiet ride, even at low speeds. With a displacement of 1,300 ccm, almost nothing can stop you, even on treacherous terrain. You can rely on exquisite performance and maximum control.
  • READY TO GO OFF-ROAD: Ready when you are. As a GS Trophy variant, your bike already has the ideal look for your ambitious off-road adventures. The typical colors and expressive graphics emphasize the adventurous character.
