In the used market, it's often chosen by those who want BMW GS quality but not the largest sizes.
Trims
The F 750 GS was introduced in 2018 alongside the more off-road-focused F 850 GS. BMW offered several style variants and optional packages.
As the equipment varies greatly between examples, check the true specification against the documents and actual equipment.
Engine and gearbox
The F 750 GS is powered by an approximately 850 cm³ liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine, producing around 77 hp. The engine is flexible and suits both city and road riding.
The gearbox is a six-speed manual, with power delivered by chain. Some examples are sold with restricted power, so check the true power in the documents.
What to check when buying a used F 750 GS
Check that all servicing has been carried out according to the BMW schedule and that any manufacturer recalls have been applied. Test the electronics: the instrument cluster, riding modes and traction control.
Check the chain, brake discs, tyres, and suspension, as well as the bodywork for signs of damage. Ask for the service history and ensure the documents match the numbers.
