The range starts with the G310 GS, moves up to the mid-sized F800 and F900 then onto the big boy, the R1300 GS. The F900 and R1300 are also offered in Adventure guise.
After sampling the F900 GS Adventure last month, we further explored the GS stable by having the F900 and F800 each as a house guest for a week. The former starts at a price of R253 150 and the latter at R226 350.
While these two bikes might seem very similar on paper, the way the two were specced meant that they were quite different.
The F800 more road-orientated and the F900 more off-road orientated.
The F900 GS were clad in GS Trophy styling, which adds golden rims, enduro handguards and underride guard making it trail ready along with the optional Enduro Package Pro. The latter consists of Sport suspension, black handlebars, handlebar risers and M Endurance chain.
