Spy photos reveal BMW is developing a new middleweight adventure motorcycle to fill the gap between the F 450 GS and F 900 GS. The prototype uses an F 900 GS-style steel bridge frame with spoked wheels, 21-inch front and 18-inch rear, and what appears to be a reworked F 450 GS-derived engine in the 600cc range. It would rival the Yamaha Tenere 700 and KTM 690 Adventure, with a possible 2028 market launch.

No spec sheet yet, but spy shots alone tell you plenty. Sharing the F 900 GS's steel bridge frame and running a 21-inch front wheel signals serious adventure intent. Compared to the old F 650 GS, if this revives that 600cc class, it's the bike a lot of people have been waiting for. This is the part I can't stop thinking about.
