#Adv

Despite having been around the longest, BMW’s middleweight machines haven’t been leading the pack since the current adventure craze took off. As of late, the F 800/850 haven’t been top of the performance heap on-road or off. BMW aims to change that with its all-new F 900 GS. A bump in displacement along with a thorough redesign and new options may very well be the ticket to putting the Beemer back into serious contention within the middleweight ADV brawl. Lucky us, we got to head to southern Spain to see if BMW’s latest adventure bike was a stud or a dud.

Adventure model comes with 7.9 gallon tank, optional Automated Shift Assistant, and mounting points for all your favorite farkles

Ducati announced a new DesertX variant that comes standard with a number of accessories to make it more adventure-ready. With an MSRP of $19,995, the 2025 Ducati DesertX Discovery offers a middle-ground between the $17,995 baseline DesertX and the more hardcore $22,995 DesertX Rally.
