WANDERLUST ON TWO WHEELS.
Being on the move, gaining impressions, experiencing the world, relaxed and yet dynamic riding pleasure: This is what the world looks like from the saddle of the new BMW K 1600 GT. It offers you even more independence and dynamics with even more touring comfort: its 6-cylinder in-line engine is already considered an icon with its power delivery and running smoothness. Added to this are the absolute long-distance suitability with wind and weather protection and equipment which makes you want to mount the machine right away. And innovative highlights like the standard reverser or the intelligent ECALL emergency call system top the overall package off perfectly. As well-equipped as you are with the K 1600 GT, you not only see a great deal, you yourself are also a sight to behold. Indeed, you leave quite an impression regardless of whether you are at a standstill or on the move.
Dynamics for the eye as well.
The remarkable appearance of the K 1600 GT is supported by the high-quality paint finish: from exclusively discreet to sportily dynamic. You decide what suits you.
First-class six-pack.
Legendary: the six-cylinder in-line engine. With this, every ride is a pleasure. With its unmatched running smoothness and power delivery, it reliably ensures the desired dynamics. Its 118 kW (160 HP) and maximum torque of 175 Nm develop an incomparable and effortless push force. In doing so, 70% of the torque is already available at 1,500 rpm. Meaning the smallest movement of the hand gives the K 1600 GT a good dose of controllability on tours: response characteristics and handling from a thoroughbred.
Extensive standard equipment.
Technically at the highest level, the equipment fitted as standard on the K 1600 GT leaves nothing more to wish for: ABS Pro, which ensures safe braking even when leaning, the innovative xenon headlight and the multi-controller are just a few of the extras fitted. New to standard production: the dynamic ESA. The chassis recognises and controls the damping action and the angular rate sensor and control units in milliseconds. In doing so, it ensures the best damper settings in every driving situation. Even when leaning, a damping comfort which was not even imaginable until now is achieved and as a result a constantly stable riding behaviour is achieved
