2017 BMW F series GS models unveiled

BMW Motorrad has announced some updates for its F 700 GS, F 800 GS and F 800 GS Adventure enduro bikes.

The most significant enhancements concern the 798 cc engine which powers all three motorcycles (in various states of tune). This parallel-twin unit has become compliant with Euro 4 emissions regulations, plus an electromotive 'fly by wire' throttle controller is now fitted.

As standard, there's a choice of Rain and Road riding modes. F 800 GS and F 800 GS Adventure customers can also specify optional Enduro and Enduro Pro settings.

A redesigned tailpipe is one of few visual clues that help to identify the 2017 versions, but dedicated BMW spotters will notice the revised instruments and paintwork changes as well.

Hence the concept of regeneration by substituting ancient components with fresh replacements. Handling, brakes and reliability are all dramatically improved, while the outward appearance remains unmolested. Various models have received this treatment in recent years, including numerous Jaguars and even the Shelby G.T.500CR . Now it’s the turn of the Jensen Interceptor, a car originally built during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Jensen International Automotive , based in Thame, Oxfordshire, has just delivered the first of its Interceptor R models. And, with an annual production figure of 18 cars, it’s a product that will be very exclusive. In a process lasting around five months, each Interceptor R is totally rebuilt from a suitable donor car.
