BMW Motorrad Malaysia unveils two models

BMW Motorrad Malaysia has unveiled the new BMW F 700 GS and the BMW F 800 R.

Built in Rayong, Thailand, both models are aimed at new riders, according to BMW Motorrad Malaysia.

It is said that both models draw their power from the liquid-cooled 798cc, four-valve two-cylinder engine with electronic fuel injection, which is paired to a six-speed gearbox.

Producing a maximum output of 75hp and 77Nm  of peak torque, the new F 700 GS now comes with ABS as a standard feature. It is also available with a low seat option (790mm).

Available in four colours (Alpine White, Blackstorm, and Racing Blue), the F 700 GS is priced at RM56,900 (OTR without insurance).

The F 800 R on the other hand, which is also powered by the same engine as the F 700 GS, delivers an output of 87hp and a maximum torque of 86Nm.

Similar to the GS, the F 800 R is also made available with a low seat option as standard, which allows customers to lower the seat to height of 780mm.

According to BMW Motorrad Malaysia, those who opt for the Sport variant will get additional safety features such as the ASC (Automatic Stability Control) and ESA (Electronic Suspension Adjustment).

The BMW F 800 R Sport also features a unique RDC (Tyre Pressure Control) system with a gradient monitor which provides riders with reliable information on the current tyre pressure.

Other notable features on the new F 800 R Sport include rear LED lights, an engine spoiler, and two colour schemes – Racing Blue Metallic and Light White.
