Bmw F 700 Gs
The BMW F 700 GS was introduced in 2012 as a successor to the F 650 GS, despite the naming change reflecting its true 800cc displacement rather than 650cc. It was designed as a more accessible, road-biased adventure tourer compared to its larger sibling the F 800 GS, appealing to newer riders and those preferring a lower seat height. The model was discontinued after 2018 as BMW shifted focus toward the updated F 750 GS and F 850 GS lineup.

What Buyers Should Know
Parallel Twin Reliability
The F 700 GS uses BMW's proven 798cc parallel-twin engine shared with the F 800 GS, known for excellent long-term durability when serviced on schedule. Many owners report 60,000+ miles with minimal mechanical issues.
Watch the Throttle Body
A known issue on this model is throttle body synchronization falling out of alignment, causing rough idling or hesitation. Always ask for service history and check if this has been addressed before buying used.
Strong Resale Value
The F 700 GS holds its value well due to the BMW badge and its reputation as an approachable adventure bike for newer riders. Used examples often sell for 70-80% of original MSRP within the first few years.
