BMW K-Series description

Faster than every speed limit in the country and comfortable enough to do it all day. Refined, but with more power than you will ever need. 

Excellent mix of touring capability and outright power, this bike can do it all. I have ridden 500 miles in a day and was happy to get right back up and do it again the next day. Stable, strong, a joy to listen to as the revs build.....there is so much about this bike that makes riding a wonderful experience. 

Although 11 years old, this bike is easily an equal for any modern sport tourer and will put sport bikes to shame. If you want speed but are not interested in the knee and back cramps that usually go with a bike this capable, try this one. 

I am not the first owner but it is apparent from the modifications that the previous owners took as much care as I have of this bike. Various restrained bits of carbon fibre have been added to the chassis and engine guards. A battery voltage monitor is affixed to the cowling. I purchased the BMW expandable luggage when I first bought the bike, and recently added a new front tire. 

36,000 miles on the odometer are accurate, but all updates and regular service intervals have been honored. The bike runs strong and without issue. 

If you have any questions, please feel free to text me.

Updates Coming for 2022 BMW K1600 Models

Tue, 05 Oct 2021

Euro 5 updates and more for six-cylinder K bikes The R18 Transcontinental and R18 Bagger have been getting a lot of attention lately, as BMW‘s foray into large-displacement cruiser touring segment. Getting somewhat lost, however, are BMW’s existing K1600 range, which used to be the company’s representatives in the touring category. While still part of BMW’s lineup, the six-cylinder models have not been updated since the 2017 model year, not even receiving any changes to meet Euro 5 standards that came into effect last year.
