US - Those awaiting the arrival of BMW’s new F 800 GS will need to wait awhile longer, as production of the middleweight dual-purpose enduro will be delayed due to continued demand for the F 650 GS, BMW said in a press release Jan. 24. The F 800 GS is expected to be available at U.S. BMW retailers in Fall 2008, making it a 2009 model.
The 2008 BMW GS line, including the upgraded R 1200 GS and GS Adventure models, will arrive in dealerships this spring.
Motorcycle enthusiasts were able to preview the GS models at Cycle World International Motorcycle Shows this winter.
