2024 BMW F 900 GS and F 900 GS Adventure: What's new?
The F 900 GS has experienced a weight reduction of 14 kg. The latest GS models come equipped with two standard riding modes: Rain and Road. Additionally, they include Dynamic Traction Control, cornering-optimized ABS Pro, and a dynamic brake light. BMW offers an optional "riding modes Pro" feature, enabling the rider to manage engine drag torque control and Dynamic Brake Control (DBC).
The BMW F 900 GS is now equipped with a new, significantly lighter fuel tank constructed from plastic. The swingarm's weight has also been reduced, and the motorcycle features a new aluminum stand and brake lever. Furthermore, BMW has incorporated knuckle guards and heated grips into the design. Notably, the Showa upside-down forks at the front are now fully adjustable on both the F 900 GS and F 900 GS Adventure models.
The off-road performance of the F 900 GS has been improved through the introduction of a revised riding triangle. The footrests have been positioned lower, the handlebars raised higher, and the fuel tank has undergone a redesign. These modifications facilitate a more comfortable standing riding position. Additionally, the F 900 GS features a new headlamp unit, which is now equipped with LED technology. Furthermore, all three motorcycles are fitted with LED turn indicators.
