BMW Dirt Bikes
BMW has expanded its off-road dirt bike lineup with the introduction of its G450X enduro. It joins the G650 Singles and off-road capable tourers like the F800GS and R1200GS Adventure.
Although long an off-road competitor in such races as the Paris Dakar Rally, BMW is making a concerted push into the off-road market. The single-cylinder G650GS (formerly dubbed F650GS) returns as a dirt-capable streetbike for 2009. Other G650 models are the X series, powered by the same 652cc Single: The Xcountry scrambler, Xmoto supermotard and the enduro Xchallenge. On top of producing its own 450 enduro in the G450X, BMW has purchased off-road manufacturer Husqvarna. History of BMW Motorcycles
The BMW F800GS is one of our favorite motorcycles, but how does it stack up against a more aggressive adventure bike like the KTM 690 Enduro R?
