In the latest development, the German two-wheeler manufacturer has given away the launch schedule of the ADV via a teaser. Going by the information shared in the teaser, the BMW F 450 GS will make a global debut in its production-ready guise by the end of this year, most likely at the EICMA.
The final price announcement and deliveries are expected to commence in early 2026. In terms of design, the concept version of the F 450 GS seems to be taking inspiration from the bigger R 1300 GS. Upfront, the bike featured the familiar quad DRL setup with the GS logo which will likely be replaced by the main headlamp unit in the production version.
With an overall hefty stance and aggressive design elements, the concept bike featured golden USD forks, a 6.5-inch TFT display and cross-spoke wheels. Overall, the F 450 GS concept appeared almost production ready and we expect very minimal changes in the final version.
