EICMA
New BMW F 800 GT and 90 Years Special Edition models were unveiled at EICMA.
BMW Motorrad has introduced its new F 800 GT middleweight tourer and three 90 Years Special Edition models - the R 1200 GS Adventure, R 1200 RT and R 1200 R, to celebrate the manufacturer's momentous 90th year in 2013. The new motorcycles were unveiled during a press conference at the EICMA 70th Salone Internationale del Motociclo in Milan.
BMW F 800 GT.
The new F 800 GT, which replaces the highly successful F 800 ST, sets a new benchmark for middleweight touring motorcycles. The 'Gran Tourismo' model is offered with a comprehensive range of high-specification options, bringing innovations including Electronic Suspension Adjustment (ESA) and traction control to the middleweight touring class for the first time.
The F 800 GT offers an unprecedented balance of long-range comfort, optimised ergonomics and dynamic handling with the fuel economy, lower weight and value for money synonymous with the range of 800cc parallel-twin BMW motorcycles.

90 Years Special Editions.
To celebrate nine decades of innovation, passion and adventure, BMW Motorrad has created three '90 Year Special Edition' motorcycles. The three models - the R 1200 GS Adventure, R 1200 RT tourer and R 1200 R roadster - all feature a Boxer-twin engine, the same layout used in the very first BMW motorcycle: the 1923 R32.
The three 90 Years Special Edition models feature a subtle, refined overall paintscheme in Sapphire black metallic, with fork legs and brake callipers anodised in gold, echoing the classic BMW Motorrad 'black and gold' paintschemes. All three also feature an exclusive nickel-plated and polished brass plate, bearing the inscription "90 Jahre BMW Motorrad"
