BURSTING WITH DYNAMICS, FULL OF IMPRESSIONS
Your tour is perfect if you have already forgotten everything you left behind after the first corner. When you feel an irresistible drive in response to the smallest command. In other words: When you have everything you need, but you still get more: more comfort, more performance. The legendary six-cylinder K 1600 GT now drives you forward with even more focus. In keeping with this, the new cockpit has been fully geared towards your needs. For an unparalleled performance tour when you’re out and about with like-minded people. A fully fledged #RideAndShare.
HIGHLIGHTS OF THE K 1600 GT
From performance to comfort and operability, the K 1600 GT is geared entirely to your travel experience, right down to the last detail. You can even approach rides in the dark more dynamically than ever before. Turn night into day with the full LED headlight. And the adaptive headlight adds riding pleasure and safety, as it almost fully lights up corners. Wherever you are heading, it’s already bathed in light. The optional audio system 2.0 also impresses with excellent interaction and signal quality, delivering the perfect sound for sunrise after having been on the road all night.The colour must have an appeal – the idea must be just right
K 1600 GT riders have one thing in common: dynamics and travelling at the highest level. However, when it comes to choosing a colour, the similarities stop: the next corner is always the most beautiful. Just like your own bike
Always a little more
Thanks to extensive optional equipment and original BMW Motorrad accessories, you can tailor your bike even more towards yourself and your trips. We also offer the comfort package and tour package ex works: for instance, the comfort package offers shift assistant Pro, which allows you to shift gears without having to operate the clutch. Thanks to audio system 2.0 and the LED additional headlight, the tour package offers both audible and visual highlights. And it goes without saying that the latter applies especially to the Option 719 seat and Option 719 forged wheels optional equipment
Perfectly prepared
We have prepared two bikes for you as examples to give you ideas for further individualisation. The “Dynamic” and the “Stylish” variants. We have focused, above all, on the dynamics and design of the K 1600 GT.
You’ve never travelled like this: in full screen mode, the 10.25" TFT colour display with connectivity allows you to virtually immerse yourself in the maps. Perfect readability and clear menu navigation complete any information. Thanks to smartphone-based navigation, operation is as easy as you are used to it in your everyday life: again, it’s what we call perfect design and absolutely superior characteristics. Characteristics that are already reflected in the dynamic, athletic appearance of the K 1600 GT.

Cruising or racing along landscapes? All it takes to decide that on the K 1600 GT is a small twist of the wrist. The revamped engine control unit of the legendary six-cylinder engine provides even more intensity in all areas. This means that you can now unleash the power and torque even more forcefully. The motorcycle now develops the 160 hp rated output 1,000 rpm earlier, at 6,750 rpm. Engine drag torque control (dynamic engine brake control) and Dynamic ESA ensure stability plus safety and are perfectly adapted to the now even more emotionally designed riding modes: for intensive performance touring.
