Models and Packages

There are three models of the F750GS/F850GS:

  • The F750GS, which is slightly less powerful and is more focused on on-road riding
  • The F850GS, which is slightly more powerful and is more focused on off-road riding
  • The F850GS Adventure (aka the GSA), which is an even more off-road focused F850GS

All versions of the bike share the same frame and the same 853cc engine. Many of the parts are the same across the models as well.

Changes by Model Year

  • 2021: Update for Euro5 emissions compliance. Exhaust headers are slightly larger, which impacts the design of some aftermarket skid plates. Engine cold start cycle tweaked so that bike now idles high after cold start to heat the catalytic converter.
  • 2023: Automatic turn signal cancelation can now be toggled in menu. Some models sold equipped with M Endurance chains.

Models

F750GS

  • A different camshaft, intake and engine map are used from the F850GS. This lowers power to 77hp/61ft-lb.
    • Recommended fuel octane is 91 RON/87 AKI (Regular)
  • Cast aluminum alloy wheels are equipped with a 19-inch front wheel diameter. This improves on-road handling at the expense of off-road obstacle clearance and durability.
  • The front suspension is a conventional (right-side up) 41mm fork with 5.9 inches of travel.
  • The rear suspension is a conventional spring strut with 6.9 inches of travel.
  • Due to the lower suspension, seat height is 0.2 inches lower on the F750GS.
  • Total ground clearance is 7.5 inches.
  • Wet weight is 493lbs (MY2019).

F850GS

  • The F850GS outputs 90hp/63ft-lb.
    • Recommended fuel octane is 95 RON/90 AKI (Premium)
  • Spoked wheels are used with a 21-inch front wheel diameter. This improves off-road obstacle clearance and durability and provides a wider range of off-road tire choices.
  • The front suspension is an inverted (upside-down) 43mm fork with 8.0 inches of travel.
  • The rear suspension is a progressive-damping spring strut with 8.6 inches of travel.
  • Total ground clearance is 9.8 inches.
  • Wet weight is 504lbs (MY2019).

F850GS Adventure

The F850GSA includes all features of the F850GS, plus the following:

  • Larger fuel tank
  • Taller windshield
  • OEM engine crash bars
  • OEM wind deflectors
  • Dual-height brake pedal
  • Saddlebag mounts

There are additional features on the Adventure, but the bike is not well documented online.
