2019 BMW F 750GS Overview
For 2019, BMW offers the F 750GS as an enduro / off-road motorcycle with 853 cc on tap. The 2019 BMW F 750GS is built around a Twin, four-stroke engine running Double Overhead Cams/Twin Cam (DOHC) valve actuation, a compression ratio of 12.7:1. Out on the road, the F 750GS delivers 77 hp @ 7500rpm of peak power and 83 Nm @ 6000rpm of torque. Flat out, it's quoted at 190 km/h. In everyday use, the 2019 F 750GS tips the scales at 224 kg, carries a 15 L fuel tank, offers a seat height of 815 mm and spans a 1559 mm wheelbase. That's roughly 54.5 kg heavier than the average enduro / off-road motorcycle in our database. Every technical detail, from suspension travel to tyre sizes, is covered in the full 2019 BMW F 750GS spec sheet below.
2019 BMW F 750GS compared with other bikes in the Enduro / Off-Road category
Measured against other bikes in the Enduro / Off-Road category in our database (up to 1434 models, one entry per model), the 2019 BMW F 750GS comes out as follows.
- With 815 mm, the F 750GS has the joint 154th lowest seat height of 1146 bikes in the Enduro / Off-Road category, 7% below the category average of 879 mm.
- Engine displacement of 853 cc is larger than that of 1191 of the other 1433 bikes in the Enduro / Off-Road category.
- Only 99 of the other 449 bikes in the Enduro / Off-Road category have a higher top speed than the 190 km/h of the F 750GS.
- Narrowing the field to the 501 models within five model years of it, the seat height of 815 mm is lower than that of 426 of the other 500.
Versus the 2018 model
Compared with the 2018 model, seat height came down from 830 mm to 815 mm (-15 mm). Peak power, peak torque, wet weight, displacement and top speed are unchanged.
2019 F 750GS - Pros & Cons
Strengths
-
⚡
Strong power output: Peak output on the F 750GS is 77 hp @ 7500rpm and 83 Nm @ 6000rpm of torque - strong numbers for what it is.
-
🔧
Fuel injection: No choke, no jetting, no altitude compensation to think about - fuel injection just works across a wider range of conditions than carburetion.
-
🛑
Strong front braking: The disc front brake bites hard and stays consistent - a solid foundation whether it's stock or upgraded with braided lines.
-
🛡️
ABS fitted: With ABS on board, hard braking on a damp or gravelly surface is far less likely to end in a locked wheel.
Considerations
-
⚙️
Chain final drive upkeep: A chain drivetrain is the most common setup in its class, but it's also the one that demands the most regular hands-on maintenance.
Wear Points & Servicing Notes
Cooling system servicing
With Liquid cooled, thermal management is largely automatic, but the coolant has a service life of its own - replace it on the manufacturer's interval to protect the water passages and thermostat.
Fuelling & injector care
Fuelling on the F 750GS comes from Electronic intake injection. Cold starts and throttle response stay consistent across altitude and temperature, the main practical edge over a carbureted equivalent.
Valve clearance checks
Valve clearances on Double Overhead Cams/Twin Cam (DOHC)-equipped engines like the F 750GS's drift slowly with mileage rather than failing suddenly - sticking to the service interval keeps it a non-issue.
Brake disc and pad wear
2 x 305mm discs, 2 piston calipers, ABS up front provides the primary stopping power; inspect disc thickness and pad wear at each tyre change to catch scoring before it becomes a rotor replacement.
Suspension condition on used examples
Suspension duties are handled by 41mm telescopic forks up front and Aluminum double-sided swing arm, directly mounted, preload and rebound damping adjustable at the rear. Weeping fork seals aren't a dealbreaker on a used bike, but they're a fair basis for negotiating price.
Final drive maintenance
Chain final drive on the F 750GS means routine lubing and tension checks are part of ownership - skip them and sprocket wear accelerates noticeably.
Frame & chassis check
The Steel bridge frame in monocoque design, load-bearing engine chassis holds up well with normal use; on a used bike it's still worth checking the head-stock and swingarm pivot area for impact damage or corrosion.
Handling the weight at a standstill
The F 750GS's 224 kg kerb weight is worth factoring into how you handle it at a standstill - parking-lot manoeuvres need a bit more deliberate technique than on a lighter machine.
F 750GS - Buying & Maintenance Guide
What to check before buying
A pre-purchase check on the 2019 BMW F 750GS with its 853 cc enduro / off-road should cover the same ground every time: service history, drivetrain condition, and any oil seepage around the casings. This model runs chain final drive, so check chain slack and sprocket tooth profile specifically - a worn sprocket is a cheaper fix now than after it's chewed up the next chain. Now 7 years old, this enduro / off-road is as likely to show age-related wear (perished rubber, seized fasteners, degraded seals) as mileage-related wear. Start it from cold if you can - a well-kept F 750GS settles to a smooth idle within seconds.
Oil and filter changes
Oil changes are the cheapest insurance you can buy for the F 750GS's 853 cc twin, four-stroke - keep to the manufacturer's interval rather than stretching it. With a 12.7:1 compression ratio, running the octane grade specified in the manual matters more than on a lower-compression engine. Use the viscosity grade the manual specifies, not whatever's on sale.
Fuel system care
Injector systems like the F 750GS's hold up well with basic care - decent fuel, an occasional cleaner additive, and draining old fuel before any layup longer than three months.
Valve clearance service
There's no reliable seat-of-the-pants way to tell if an F 750GS's valve clearances are in spec - a light top-end tick is the only real warning sign, and by then some wear has already happened. Service records are the only proof.
