Features

Features

  • AUTOMATIC LOAD COMPENSATION: Balanced: several sensors detect the riding conditions – including spring compression, acceleration or deceleration. This ensures optimum damping comfort and stable handling.
  • INTEGRATED SMARTPHONE CHARGING COMPARTMENT: Bursting with energy: the integrated, splash-proof and specially ventilated charging compartment features a USB-C connection so that navigation with your smartphone does not become a dead end.
  • STYLE SPORT: The color shows it: if you like to be dynamic when out and about, Style Sport is the right choice.
  • LEGENDARY ENGINE: Added power on the straight and added dynamics into and out of every corner – the new engine control unit makes things significantly sharper.
  • BRILLIANT 10.25" TFT: Grand appearance: the 10.25" TFT color display with integrated map navigation is unrivaled in terms of readability, menu navigation and operating concept.
  • CONFIGURABLE FAVORITES BUTTON: Your tour, your preferences, your convenience: assign your favorite functions to the four buttons.
  • FULL LED HEADLIGHT: In the right light: the new, full LED headlight illuminates your tour and features the adaptive headlight as standard.
  • 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 visibility, as it almost fully lights up corners.
  • THE COLOR MUST HAVE AN APPEAL – THE IDEA MUST BE JUST RIGHT: K 1600 GT riders have one thing in common: dynamics and traveling at the highest level. However, when it comes to choosing a color, the similarities stop: the next corner is always the most beautiful. Just like your own bike.
  • PRECISELY PREPARED: We have prepared two bikes for you as examples to give you ideas for further individualization. The “Dynamic” and the “Stylish” variants. We have focused, above all, on the dynamics and design of the K 1600 GT.
  • You’ve never traveled like this: in full screen mode, the 10.25" TFT color display with connectivity allows you to virtually immerse yourself in the maps. Clear readability intuitive menu navigation complete any information. Thanks to smartphone-based navigation, operation is as easy as you are used to in everyday life: again, it’s what we call thoughtful design and absolutely outstanding 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 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 help ensure stability and are optimally adapted to the now even more emotionally designed riding modes: for intensive performance touring.
