Deep Black
THE LOOK. One look at the G GS tells you it was built to deliver simple riding pleasure. With its slim profile and athletic build, it talks the talk on city streets, and walks the walk on the open road. Its unique styling will be the center of attention everywhere it goes, and the curvaceous flow of its lines from front to back immediately identifies it as a GS. The characteristic beak at the front is a further distinguishing feature. Whether you go for the solid Deep Black or the clean Aura White – each with a two-tone seat – the G GS
combines distinctive BMW Motorrad design with a youthful dynamism that’s all its own. Because while you may be happy to blend into the background in everyday life, riding a motorcycle should be about escaping from mundane reality.
