Thanks for mentioning the cast vs spoked wheels on this. The cast wheels would be exactly why I would buy this version over the 850. I'd rather spend my time riding rather than have to check 200 spoke nuts every time take the bike out. And, give me tubeless tires any day. Granted, I'd be riding probably 70% paved, but the spoked wheel maintenance doesn't appeal to me.

I just got my F750GS after trading in my F800GS, absolutely love it, such an awesome bike. Great review Jamie, makes me feel like I made the right decision 👍😎

Good review! Like the fact that you’re not adverse to picking the smaller / lighter or less powerful model. Most motor journalists always pick the bigger bike.

I see a lot of opinions and that’s great! I bought this bike as my first ever motorcycle. Been one month now and I am enjoying it very much. Replaced windshield, moved NAV, raised bars and GS panniers all around. Cheers!

I usually don't give advice but you wrote the comment first bike ever. As a rider of over 300,000 miles my tip is always keep an eye on traffic in front of you till you have a summer of riding experience. I had my first crash at 600 miles looking down at my tachometer worried about breaking in my engine properly. I ride mostly in Utah, Idaho, Colorado but have ridden in over 10 countries. Good luck, very nice first bike choice you made.

Glad you're enjoying the bike. Which screen di you go for? Good result?

Done 6000 miles on mine now, purchased stiffer springs for the front from touratech, having them fitted soon. Done a lot of upgrades to mine already, next upgrade is spoked wheels, setting me back a couple of grand. But she's nearly ready to be a proper offroad bike.

Jaime - very nice to see you back in the saddle after your accident. Beyond the obvious differences between the 750 and 850 - as BMW defines these respective segments - I think the gentle throttle response of the 750 will benefit those who go into the dirt, and while more budget oriented, the 750 definitely has a place in the BMW line up.

LOL - that'll be 224 KG, not 334!! Still heavy as heck though.

Thank you so much! Between this vid & a ride I just came back from, I am sold. Beautiful bike.

Jamie, thanks for the review. This is perfect for a short rider like me. Already booked a test ride in Temecula CA. Keep going with your reviews. Saludos!

It's not a light bike. Just under 500lbs. Add body armour, that puts it well over 500lbs. I just bought one last fall, and it rides great. Very well balanced. The cruise control is why I bought this one. The only things I don't like, is that it's top heavy. The F700 and the F800 had the fuel tank under the seat, which lowered the centre of gravity. The other thing, which can be fixed, is the rear brake pedal is stupid low. I'll have to buy a pedal riser. Also, as you mentioned, the windshield is none-existent. I bought a Madstad, which I heard works great. Still waiting for delivery on that. Oh yes, and the none adjustable from suspension, which is not a deal breaker, but at that price point, it should be adjustable. I'm eying the Transalp, which is new to North America last year. I sat on one and it feels light in comparison and is about the same seat height with lower options, like the f750gs. No cruise and tubed spoked wheels, though. Nothing is ever perfect! They make you spend money on upgrades. It's a scam!

My 2023 F750 premium is loaded on the container ship in Germany on it way to USA Arizona....Can't wait, should get it about christmas 😁

Great review thank you I just purchased one I love it the torque is incredible

Malaga y Granada, buena zona para ruta y mejor gastronomía 👏

This is the bike I'd like to see put up against the Moto Guzzi v85tt. I think the BMW would still win generally, but the Guzzi would still make a special place against it.

I traded my 700 GS with low suspension for a 1250 GS, also with low suspension. The new bike is fantastic, but I miss the lower seat and lighter weight of the 700, which was very agile and great offroad. The 750 must be similar.

@MichaelBrashier

Does the low suspension models have less suspension travel?

I find it quite light, compared to the RT1200 I had, this is a moped - but much more fun riding!

Hi; thanks nice honest review. BMW should offer an Adventure version on this F750GS with spoked wheels with tubeless rims, a skid plate & better suspensions (inverted adjustable front fork) & i would highly consider buying one (i would keep seat height as it is & 19 inches front wheel as im a short rider). I know some people will told me to buy an F850GS but his seat height is to high for me & price is very expensive; its why i would love to see & own a future new F750GSA Adventure version 😘😍🥰❤️. Cheers from Montreal. I actually own a CB500X. A new future Africa Twin 750cc or a CB650X would also be very interesting & tempting. Lets dream! for now, i wait to see if the lowered version of the new Ténéré 700 seat height could be accessible & manageable for my short height. Lets see when they will be available in Canada next year.

You'd like my F750GS then, upgraded it loads. Just waiting on my spoked wheels now, and stiffer fork springs and a heavier weight oil.

What's lighter Alloy or Spoked? Am I right in thinking that the BMW spoked wheels take tubeless tires? Btw I understand that (crazily) the "750" actually has the same motor (same c.c.) as the 850. Check with BMW if you think I'm pulling your leg... Thanks, Pete.

I don't get it, what's the point of taking an engine capable of making 90HP and 63LB-FT of torque and neutering it to 77HP/57LB-FT? Might as well keep the same configuration and make the platform lighter and lower if you want a more manageable bike for the smaller crowd. I really don't get it... Btw, at 1:30 - 493lbs is not 334kgs, it's actually 223kgs. 334kgs is like Goldwing territory or something. lol

The F750GS can be restricted down to be compliant with the A2 license in Europe. Presumably that meant they had to use the different camshaft for lower output.

The old f800gs is up from 85 hp to 95 hp in the new f850gs. But the same increase is only from 75hp to 77hp in f700gs-f750gs upgrade. Really difficult to figure out why.

Excuse me, this Bike isn't light. 224 kg without any extra Equipment. With full equipment she approaches the 235.

How tall is she? I am 5'6 (around 1.67 meters) and I am new to adventure bikes, I am between the 750 or the 850

I might get this next At 11000 it doenst break my budget and it has good features at base.

so better than the vstrom 650 XT with the spoked wheels? speaking of overall and adventure use..

You are the best motogeo👋👋🙂🙂🙂👍❤❤😗😍😍

Tnx for sharing, wondering if you can get it with Spook Wheel

Nice review

Hey since I’m not doing a lot of off-road, which do you recommend between BMW F750 GS or Suzuki Vstrom 650 ?

334kg whaaaat?, maybe 234?

Thanks Jamie, and Motogeo. In my case, if today was the day i have to buy a "little" trial, i think it will be the Triumph Tiger 800……….. from 2018.... But cause i love the new Street Triple 765 and the Speed Triple 1050...…...there will be any chance of a test ride please ?.....Thanks and bye :)

well done

But the tires are not Continental. They are Michelin Anakee Wild !!! 😎

Those are not stock tires though. It’s more street oriented and comes with street tires. I would have went with enduro tires myself

What's going to be real telling is when the KTM 790 Adv R get's compared to the 850GS BMW.

493lbs is not 334kgs, it's actually 223kgs

Keeps price down so people can customize it. My Super Tenere stock was loaded with needs. $3500 in after market upgrades later now they have all been address. Bike looks better , can carry a lot of camp gear, and ride off road with less risk of damage. This BMW750 is a starting point to get people to buy. My Tenere new was $12,000

The review looks like the pure advertisement. The truth is that bike is lighter and much more chipper version of 850. And in many cases its possibilities are enough.

Shame with the 2021 model, you can't turn the ABS off, so no longer an off road bike. BMW dropped the ball on the 750 this year

There's a huge difference between ”designed” and ”manufactured”. Bmw like Apple and most other companies design and spec their products to be built in a certain way to a certain quality. They contract a Chinese factory to manufacture it with specific methods and materials. I'd never buy a Chinese motorcycle company’s product but if buy a BMW manufactured in China.
