BMW F 450 GS: Bookings Stopped For The ADV
If you have been waiting to get the baby GS, you might have to wait longer now
The BMW F 450 GS was recently launched in India, and is the most affordable adventure motorcycle in BMW’s lineup. It has been quite popular amongst those looking for a middleweight ADV.
So much so, that the waiting period has extended to almost a year in some cities, for those who have booked the bike after its launch. Those who had pre-booked their bikes late last year are expecting to get their bikes in July or August.
If you are looking to buy the 450 GS now, you have to wait. Our dealer sources have said that they have stopped accepting new bookings until October. However, even when bookings re-open, the waiting period of those is expected to be rather long.
The BMW 450 GS is powered by a 420cc parallel-twin engine that produces 47.58PS and 43Nm of torque. It offers features like multiple ABS and traction control modes, easy ride clutch (ERC) and a 6.5-inch TFT display with smartphone mirroring . It has really good build quality – what one would expect from BMW bikes. For all of that, the F 450 GS is priced from Rs 4,70,000 to Rs 5,30,000 (ex-showroom).
BikeDekho Says
Clearly, there’s an immense hype of the bike, and it would seem people are figuratively queuing up to get their hands on one. The bike is being manufactured in India at TVS’ Hosur facility, even for global markets. We hope BMW has plans to bring down the waiting period in India, and cater to the ever rising demand for the ADV.
BMW F 450 GS User Reviews
It was my dream bike and it's so reliable and smooth. It has many features, like multiple riding mods and the trophy version has a ERC that means (easy riding clutch) it is very helpful to the beginners. The handling of the bike is very smooth and it gives around 20 to 24 milage on an average in highways and its seats are so much comfortable and it has a heating grips which helps me in early morning rides. I like to recommend this bike to the proper off-road bikers and they love this very much because of its handling and ERC you can also adjust the suspensions of both side and have a good off-road experience.

I went to the BMW Bengaluru showroom, they are not even accepting booking and the vehicle already has 8 months waiting period which is very high for a made in India bike other than that very good looking and stylish bike with ERC clutch. Very easy to maintain in the city and bumper to bumper traffic conditions.Read More

I am desperately waiting for the bike the headlight looks very interesting. I got chills when I saw the bike's introduction video. the color scheme is perfect. the TFT display makes it look more futuristic. the power output of the bike will be crazy, especially on the trails, I hope the bike has good low-end torque which can help in the trails. although this bike is a big competitor of the Himalayan the BMW F 450 GS will be priced aggressively, at the end of the day it is a BMW. At the end of the day I'm just waiting for the bike to be launched and I get to see the bike in person.Read More
