BMW Motorrad is expanding its GS adventure motorcycle lineup to address gaps between existing models. Initial updates highlighted the development of the F450GS, a successor to the G310GS, which features a parallel-twin engine designed to meet European A2 license requirements and includes advanced safety features like a 6-axis IMU and cornering ABS.

Subsequent developments indicate the company is also working on an F 600 GS, expected around 2028, to bridge the gap between the F 450 GS and the F 900 GS. The F 600 GS is anticipated to feature a 590 cc parallel twin-cylinder engine focused on torque and fuel efficiency. The F 450 GS, which has been showcased in Brazil, utilizes a steel tubular chassis and involves manufacturing partnerships, such as with TVS.
