Around the world in 180 days with a BMW R1200GS - part 3 - day 21: Falkland Islands.
Ten years after the initial launch of the successful BMW 7series during the 1970s, BMW presented the second generation of the prestigious vehicles.
BMW Motorrad presented a really special naked twin at the EICMA 2008 in Milan: an ultramodern roadster look combined with the unmistakable face of BMW Motorrad. A 2-cylinder engine with a capacity of 798 cc and a completely black finish which not only sounds cool but looks cool, too. And it powers the bike as if there were no tomorrow. This BMW can easily pass as the “little brother” of the BMW K 1300 R. This new generation naked bike lines up for the start of next season – warming the heart of those who have had difficulty finding an alternative when it comes to a well made 2-cylinder bike for everyday use and all occasions - the BMW F 800 R. A roadster in state-of-the-art style: lovingly created, light, stylish, simply in great shape. State-of-the-art manufacturing, cool design, the perfect combination of riding fun and common sense.

From a design perspective, through its dynamic and elegant lines the BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo lives out all the character of a modern sedan with a fastback rear of a traditional Gran Turismo.
