- BMW F450 GS spotted sans camouflage
- Gets styling similar to concept
- Likely launch by end of 2025
The highly awaited BMW F450 GS has been spotted undergoing testing once again—this time appearing to be in its near-final, production-ready form. Earlier prototypes were heavily camouflaged, but the latest spy images offer the clearest look yet at BMW Motorrad’s upcoming entry-level adventure tourer.
This latest test mule differs significantly from the concept version, featuring complete body panels, a tall touring-style windscreen, a vertically-stacked LED headlight, and an extended rear section—highlighting its long-distance touring orientation. The bike is seen with alloy wheels measuring 19 inches at the front and 17 inches at the rear, underscoring its road-focused setup.
That said, BMW is expected to roll out a more off-road-capable version later, which will likely include tubeless cross-spoke wheels designed to tackle rougher terrains.
Beneath the bodywork, the F450 GS is built around a steel trellis frame with a detachable sub-frame. Powering the motorcycle is a brand-new 450cc parallel-twin engine, tuned to deliver 48bhp and approximately 45Nm of torque. This engine will be mated to a six-speed gearbox, and BMW promises a lively, high-revving character.
The concept version tipped the scales at 175kg, came with a 14-litre fuel tank, and featured a 6.5-inch full-colour TFT display. While the production model may be slightly heavier due to the addition of more street-legal components, the rest of the features are expected to stay largely the same.
