BMW K1600GT AND GTL SPECIFICATION AND REVIEW

BMW inspires us with news of the first inline six-cylinder motorcycle engine in nearly 30 years, this time in the center of a few high-end touring bikes. BMW says the long-stroke 1649cc mill is a huge 129-ft lb torque to produce at its zenith, culminating in a 160-horse bump on the highway of your choice.


The K1600GTL packs big power and comfort and convenience features.

The sporty-ish K16GT substituted 4-cylinder K1300GT and K1600GTL the luxury touring car of the well known German brand. Both are available with a range of technology and luxury options, including electronically adjustable suspension, traction control, heated seats and grips, and multi-mode engine-mapping, including a number of other opportunities which will provide a truly royal ride. And the engine sounds fine when we heard, when we saw K16 showed Jay Leno's garage last month.

"A six-cylinder motorcycle engine is a rare thing, regardless of era, " notes Pete
