K 1600 Grand America
EXPERIENCE MORE TOGETHER.
Travelling in pairs means experiencing every kilometre twice. Makes sense, right? However, with the K 1600 Grand America you will always experience more. Its superior six-cylinder engine lets you casually cruise towards the horizon: perfectly equipped with footboards, topcase featuring backrest and high windscreen. As a result, it won’t be easy to say which was the most beautiful moment of the tour at the end of each day. Still, the stories about every kilometre will feel at least twice as good. Simply put: #RideAndShare
Powerful headlights.
You will experience every kilometre more intensively with the K 1600 Grand America. Thanks to the standard additional headlight and the full LED headlight with adaptive headlight, you can now travel more safely and confidently than ever before, even at night. Thanks to its swivel function, the light cone remains constant and adapts seamlessly when you lean into corners.
Audio system 2.0 with outstanding sound.
The standard audio system 2.0 also opens up new dimensions. Apart from intuitive menu navigation and numerous sound profiles, there is not much to see: the antennas have been concealed. This makes enjoying the music all the more impressive. Just what you expect!
Brilliant 10.25" TFT colour display.
Thanks to its 10.25" TFT colour display, clear-cut design and hardened as well as anti-reflective cover glass, the re-designed cockpit of the K 1600 Grand America has been perfectly geared towards your journey. And the overall appearance? Streamlining in typical bagger style with a low rear section exudes elegance, power and an exclusive character. The high windscreen, comfortable footboards and the topcase with backrest clearly show one thing: no problem if the shared journey takes a little longer here. With all the comfort features – and like a duck takes to water.
