I didn't realise BMW were replacing their small 310cc bikes with a new 450cc twin later this year (sales probably starting 2026?). This could be them coming after a share of the Triumph 400's success. As with the 310's (and the Triumph's) it'll be built in India (for better or worse!) but it will be a twin cylinder, 47bhp bike with a remarkably light 175kg weight. According to an interview I read the first bikes will be the GS Adventure bikes with other models to follow. BMW don't seem to be interested in the retro market.... but they could change their minds given the number of Speed 400's being sold! BMW's F450GS adventure bike confirmed as arriving in 2025
