BMW Motorrad has launched the new F 900 GS and F 900 GS Adventure in the Indian market. The two share similar blood but the Adventure variant is more touring focused whereas the normal F 900 GS focuses on being a more off-road edition of the two. These motorcycles are placed between the GS 850 and GS 1200 models.

Vikram Pawah, President and CEO of BMW Group India, described the new models as “perfect enduros" designed for adventure and off-road riding. He emphasized that both motorcycles combine great off-road capabilities with touring features, carrying forward BMW’s famous GS-DNA. Both these bikes will be available in the country through the CBU route.
