2020 BMW K 1600 B

Menus

What could motivate the K 1600 B to hit the ground running in 2019? A few not innocent small modifications: a new deep blue color in the catalog, the lowering of the seat from 780 to 750 mm, and the addition to the standard equipment of the Hill Start Control Pro – a hill start aid that can be used. ” be practical with a vessel of this size. But a more languid vessel than the usual Behème productions.
A bagger in the BMW range is unprecedented … and rather logical given BMW’s desire to expand. For the American market, this kind of custom-touring is a necessity in the range. As an example, the best-selling Harley-Davidson is a bagger, the Street Glide. This mission is devolved to the K 1600 B, which has an argument of weight and differences in the face of the sector’s offer. Baggers are almost all powered by a V-twin; the K 1600 B offers much more majesty with its six-cylinder.

It is not completely unknown this K 1600 B. Its arrival had been prepared with the concept 101, presented at the Concours d’Élegance Villa d’Este. Powerful, it does not suffer from any rival. Its 160 horsepower gives it almost double the watts of the main actresses in the segment. Only the Honda Goldwing can cause it velvety question and mechanical nobility.

The BMW K 1600 B is defined by a characteristic “streamline” style with a low and elusive rear end. The ambition of this bike is embodied by a slender line plunging towards the rear, integrating the side cases which in turn incorporate the American-style rear optics. Strictly parallel to the road, the new all-chrome mufflers blend organically into the bagger’s line.

Declined for a large part of the technique of the grand touring K 1600 GT, the K 1600 B obtains its spectacular slippery line thanks to an entirely new design rear end. It not only gives the bagger a particularly low and stretched look, but thanks to a new rear frame, it also gives the passenger a seat with a significantly reduced height..

Rearranged side cases and rear hinged mudguard for easy removal of the wheel.

The rearrangement of the side cases with a flatter cover and a lowered body allows luggage to be loaded comfortably and more efficiently. The rear fender can be raised to facilitate removal of the rear wheel.

High performance and effective protection against wind and weather.

Its fairing with the adjusted dynamic screen gives the K 1600 B a particularly imposing and powerful look. Below the aerodynamic deflectors, the fairing sides extend towards the rear to provide particularly effective protection against wind and bad weather. The hands are protected by wind deflectors. The two rear-view mirrors with large partly aspherical mirrors for an excellent view of the vehicles behind, also blend beautifully into the language of the forms of the motorcycle..

Electronically adjustable ESA dynamic suspension with automatic damping adjustment as standard.

Equipped with the electronically adjustable ESA dynamic suspension and its “Road” and “Cruise” riding modes, the K 1600 B masterfully combines pleasure, directional stability and dynamic behavior and thus distills an incomparable experience on the handlebars. In standard “Road” mode, the damping adaptation is fully automated and offers maximum comfort and the best possible traction on almost any road surface. In “Cruise” mode, the K 1600 B, on the other hand, switches to a particularly gentle damping law which ensures very pronounced comfort at low speed..

TOreverse gear for easy maneuvering and Pro shifter for up and down gears without actuating the clutch.

On the K 1600 B, maneuvering the motorcycle is relaxed thanks to the reverse gear assistance. It is easy to activate from the left stalk. The motorcycle moves when the start button is pressed.

The optional shifter Pro allows up and down gears without intervening on the clutch; a large part of the gear changes can be carried out via this device.

Comfortable steps for a “feet forward” position and exclusive forged rims available as an option to personalize your bike.

A wide range of Original BMW Accessories as well as options offered at the factory meet almost all the desires of those who want to personalize the K 1600 B. These include, for example, the comfortable footboards for the passenger, elements which can, moreover, be added. also complete the pilot’s position allowing him to adopt a particularly relaxed “feet forward” position. New look forged rims with eleven split-spokes also reinforce the exclusivity of the K 1600 B.
