The production version of the BMW F 450 GS will be outfitted with various features, including traction control, dual-channel ABS, cornering ABS, multiple riding modes, and several additional aids. It remains uncertain whether these features will be standard or optional. Additionally, the motorcycle will be equipped with a TFT instrument display.
