BMW F 450 GS

With the G 310 GS discontinued, the BMW F 450 GS becomes the new entry-level model in the brand’s highly celebrated GS family

After it was showcased as a concept at the 2025 Bharat Mobility Expo, the BMW F 450 GS has been spotted on road tests in Karnataka state, India, for the first time.

While the concept had a high-mounted exhaust, the test mules can be seen with an upswept exhaust. This placement is more practical as mounting the side panniers becomes easier. The test vehicle can also be seen with a top case. While the concept was presented with cross-wire-spoke wheels, the test mules can be seen with alloy wheels. These appear to be the same units as were used with the now discontinued G 310 GS.
