BMW Motorrad has introduced the F450GS to Argentina as its most affordable trail model, powered by a 420cc parallel-twin making 48hp at 8,750rpm. Weighing 178kg, it comes in four trims -- Cosmic, Exclusive, Sport, and Trophy -- priced from $14,600 to $15,600.
Looking at the spec sheet, 48hp from a 420cc twin is the part that gets me. Compared to the rest of the GS lineup this clearly targets the entry price point, and offering four trims widens how buyers can pick their bike. This configuration gets my pulse up.

Is the GS lineup still a big step up for someone newer to riding?
At the 420cc level it's built with manageability in mind, so I think you'd be fine.
Love that there are four trims, curious about the Trophy spec.
Whenever I hear 'cheap GS' I start wondering what got cut from the spec.
48hp at 178kg still looks like a perfectly usable spec on paper.
That's an aggressive price for a BMW, perfect entry point into the GS family.
