2024 BMW F 800GS Overview

For 2024, BMW offers the F 800GS as an enduro / off-road motorcycle with 895 cc on tap. The 2024 BMW F 800GS is built around a Four stroke, parallel twin cylinder, DOHC, 4 valves per cylinder engine, a compression ratio of 13.1:1. Out on the road, the F 800GS delivers 64 kW @ 6750 rpm of peak power and 91 Nm @ 6750 rpm of torque. In everyday use, the 2024 F 800GS tips the scales at 227 kg, carries a 15-litre fuel tank, offers a seat height of 815 mm and spans a 1590 mm wheelbase. That's roughly 29 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 2024 BMW F 800GS spec sheet below.

2024 F 800GS - Pros & Cons

Strengths

Strong power output: Peak output on the F 800GS is 64 kW @ 6750 rpm and 91 Nm @ 6750 rpm 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.

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 800GS comes from Electronic injection. Cold starts and throttle response stay consistent across altitude and temperature, the main practical edge over a carbureted equivalent.

Brake disc and pad wear

2 x 305mm floating discs, 2-piston floating calipers 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 Upside-down telescopic fork up front and Aluminium double-sided swinging arm, directly linked WAD central spring strut, spring base 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 800GS means routine lubing and tension checks are part of ownership - skip them and sprocket wear accelerates noticeably.

Frame & chassis check

The Bridge-type frame, steel shell construction, 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 800GS's 227 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 800GS - Buying & Maintenance Guide

What to check before buying

A pre-purchase check on the 2024 BMW F 800GS should cover the same ground every time: service history, chain and sprocket condition, and any oil seepage around the casings. Start it from cold if you can - a well-kept F 800GS settles to a smooth idle within seconds.

Oil and filter changes

Oil changes are the cheapest insurance you can buy for a F 800GS's engine - keep to the manufacturer's interval rather than stretching it. Use the viscosity grade the manual specifies, not whatever's on sale.

Fuel system care

Injector systems like the F 800GS's hold up well with basic care - decent fuel, an occasional cleaner additive, and draining old fuel before any layup longer than three months.
