No.9
2014 BMW F700GS ABS
Gone are the plain fairings and, more importantly, the minimalist brakes. The new F700GS comes with dual front discs and ABS as standard equipment, and a host of optional systems like traction control, electronic suspension adjustment, a tire pressure monitoring system and a trip computer. Lightweight, nimble and rider-friendly, with superb finish and a very ergonomic riding position, this BMW offers one of the best values in the segment at $10,750. Just beware of pricey options...
