2012 BMW G 650 GS Sertão

With its new BMW G 650 GS Sertão, BMW Motorrad has added a new, sporting chapter to the history of single cylinders in the BMW GS family. Whereas the G 650 GS thrilled riders with its lean, wiry offroad stature, the G 650 GS Sertão promises even more sporting characteristics, even greater offroad capabilities, and an even stronger desire for adventure.

On the technical side, the new G 650 GS Sertão uses the established liquid cooled, high-torque single cylinder engine of the G 650 GS with two overhead camshafts, fuel injection, and double ignition. Its 652 cc displacement delivers 35 kW (48 hp) at 6500 rpm and a max torque of 60 Nm at 5000 rpm. Options include output reduction to 25 kW (34 hp) at 6500 rpm and 47 Nm torque at 4500 rpm.

The special edition model comes with a larger front wheel to soak up the pot holes and difficult terrain, a high windshield, aluminium engine guard and hand protectors for enhanced rider and motorcycle protection and spoked wheels front and rear to cope with the difficult terrain. With all these standard features combined with the extreme agility, smoothness and economy of the standard G 650 GS, the superb Sertao is the perfect contender for your next bike.

The engine generates 35 kW (48 bhp) at 6500 rpm and a maximum torque of 60 Nm at 5000 rpm. Fuel consumption is sensationally low at 3.2 l per 100 km and thanks to its extremely low weight of 192 kg with full tank the bike handles easily in every situation.

The exclusive colour design is classic in Aura white/Arroyo Blue while remaining modern at the same time. The luggage carrier is in black and the seat in black/grey. Enduro fans will also enjoy the wide range of equipment. Thanks to state-of-the-art ABS (optional) the braking performance of the G 650 GS Sertão reaches a new level on wet asphalt. Apart from riding safety, a high level of comfort is ensured by the heated grips and the socket which ensures untroubled travel feeling on long distance rides.
