BMW Motorrad Malaysia has unveiled the new 2026 F 450 GS Trophy, priced at RM39,900. As a compact, easy-to-use adventure model, it brings the iconic GS experience to a wider range of riders.
The idea of bringing the GS's whole world down into a 450, and compact at that, is already fascinating. Compared to the big GS, how did they cut and keep chassis size and power? Following the spec sheet is irresistible. Precisely because it's a bike meant to widen the entry point, the design's give-and-take reveals real development philosophy.

Given road conditions in Malaysia, a size like this is probably the most practical.
Is the F450 GS positioned kind of like a little sibling to the R1300GS?
Extending the GS name down to a 450 isn't a bad call for carrying over the big-GS identity.
The 450 class sits right in the price bracket that goes head-to-head with KTM and Triumph's 400-series bikes.
With this compact-GS expansion, I'm curious whether under the skin it's really an OEM from another maker.
It's built on the joint-venture line with Loncin, so I'd say it leans more BMW-designed than pure OEM.
If RM39,900 gets you a taste of the GS experience, I'd say that's a pretty solid price.
You can't really tell if it's a good deal without looking at the actual out-of-pocket cost including all fees.
