The most significant change in the new BMW F 900 GS is its substantial weight reduction. Compared to the F 850 GS, the F 900 GS sheds 14 kilograms, thanks to several updates, including a new chassis, a lighter plastic fuel tank, a revised battery, and the Akrapovic rear muffler. These adjustments contribute to improved handling and overall agility. For the F 900 GS Adventure, the motorcycle comes with an adjustable touring windscreen, an aluminium sump guard, auxiliary lights, and a large 23-litre fuel tank.
