K 1600 GT

BMW Motorrad K1600 GT

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.

BMW Motorrad K1600 GT

WANDERLUST ON TWO WHEELS.

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.
 

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.
