The bagger looks amazing. I genuinely never been so excited for a bike I can't afford.

Love the background track playing during the road segments.

Collecting my Bagger this Friday with at least a four hour ride to get home....Perfect! Oh and you can buy pannier liners so you don't have to carry your socks and boxers into the hotel in a Tesco bag!

I live in So Cal and all the Harley riders here are so happy about their stage 4 kits where they can actually get maybe 120 hp and then you put up one of these bikes next to theirs and it seems like the stone age in all categories performance, comfort etc...

Awesome review! You captured the soul of both machines.

After watching this episode on the Bagger vs. the GTL. This is what influenced me to buy the Bagger, specifically, the Grand America! Great bike and have not looked back (except to see how far back the other baggers are...lol) JUUUST KIDDING!

Thank you guys for the amazing review.

just went from a Harley Davidson Electra-glide classic limited, beautiful bike, great driving slow and straight, the BMW K 1600 GTL is just plain amazing, power, sound, handling, fuel capacity, mileage, wind protection driving computer, suspension adjustment an d heated seat also.. unbelievable machine, I always feel like I am on a space ship!

Hi Bought a 2018 BMW K 1600 GTL. Planet blue metallic, brown leather seats. Magnificent bike!! Take care everyone!!

“... Bavarian black magic... “ Classic

really luv this K1600B

Just waiting for the k1600b to turn up in my garage👍

The reveal of the black magic a strait 6 (one of the smoothest powerbands of an engine) then they dropped it as low as it can go its a big engine so works kinda like a counterweight

Over 12,000 miles on my GTL and that Bavarian blackmagic is still there! I commute on mine everyday in Florida. During the hot days of summer I see zero Harley riders on the road; gee I wonder why.

Regarding the weight, it's estimable, but they are hardly alone in the field.....

They've reworked the front end on the 2021 model of the GTL and eliminated the wind over instability concerns!

i have the gt sport . Well if you liked those two you will like this one even more

It makes me chuckle when they continue on about how huge this bike is despite them both being the lightest, smallest most agile touring machines here in the states, how the pond changes things.

I have a Grand America for the past two weeks. I will not be missing the Harley. Passed on the wing

I gotta say...These BMW K 1600 G.T./G.T.L. are the cat's meow! The bagger version's O.K. I guess, but the G.T. is "my" idea of the long distance ultimate machine!

Does very much depend on the rider and the purpose of the ride. Some people will never get that flat twin grumble, it'snot vibration as such it puts some off as does the droning engine note. I've had several boxers but only one of my friends ever got it. The new LC RT is a marvel and so nimble and the performance is now more adequate than it's ever been, but that's often not enough for guys used to 4 cylinder sports tourers. The K16 though can appeal to multi owners and if big motors mean more to you than the awesome nimbleness of the RT then it could be the bike. Also we've probably all had at least one bike that had an annoying patch of vibration just in the wrong places, whether that was numb hands, numb feet, numb are or just annoying rattles - no worries of that with the K16. But to be fair, when considering the next bike I did weigh up the RT against the K16, K16GT Sport is the one for me.

BMW are brave releasing this bike.

@Enonymouse_

6 жыл бұрын

Having ridden on a gold wing and it's smaller cousin, there's no comparison. The K1600 is a 690 pound formula 1 car like Br Sha says. It has more BHP and torque output at lower rpms than any other touring bike on the road. My GT gets 47 mpg, has a 6.2 gallon tank. A useable top end of 250kph out of 265 theoretical. The torque curve is very flat, the gears above 2nd are quite tall so you could hit 110mph before you were forced to shit up. 6th gear handles from 40 up to 170mph. The vibration from the road is almost not noticeable, the GT is faster and lighter than the GTL. The differences between the two are mostly farkles and max weight. What I will say about the K16 that conflicts with what this video claims, it's turn radius is quite wide and low speed handling is dicey because it's top heavy. You don't notice the top heavy feel at speeds. The K16 also has a single swing arm design, so taking tires off is a breeze. Stripping panels off to get at the guts is surprisingly easy (honda sucks a fat one on that score). Doing as much of your own mechanical work on the K16 as possible will make it very economical to own. Do buy a GS911 ODB reader immediately upon purchase of the bike.

How is that possible,that stability issue appears only in BMW's on American market? There's is nothing wrong with them in Europe. I took my 2018 Grand America fully loaded trunks plus passenger to the limit, I must admit,at 90 mph I could feel little wiggle but pushed to the limit which is 💯 mph for about two minutes and nothing, totally smooth ride like we're not moving. Amazing. Remember folks, there's always two sides to the story. Competition.

Get the bag liner’s…

If that's the wet weight, I think the 360kg or 793lbs is quite reasonable. I used to ride sport bikes exclusively but started to ride touring bikes out of necessity (can no longer physically tolerate clip ons and rear sets). When I first started shopping for a Harley, I just couldn't wrap my head around a bike that weighed as much as two of my old bikes... heck, even an optioned out Goldwing is pushing 900 pounds! Thing is, it's actually the riders who are causing the weight gain; the manufacturers are just giving us what we ask for, as we keep demanding more tech, more comfort, more storage, and more performance. It gotten to a point where I'm just thrilled to see a weight rating under 800lbs 😁

didn't say a thing about differences !

I bought a 2018 GTL. The bike is fast and for a tourer, is extremely nimble. Take it out on the highway, let 'er rip and a glaring fault soon rears it's ugly head: Instability. Once you get up to about 75 MPH, a 'crosswind' kind of instability begins to be prominent. At about 95, You'll feel a lot of things, but "one handed confidence" isn't one of them. My neighbor bought a K1600 b. He HATES the highway characteristics. I think his issue is worse on his version than it is on mine. He hates it so much, I think he's going to trade it in. When I watch a GT go up to 230 Km/h I think to myself "Are you kidding me?! I wouldn't even think of doing that. I ran my 1000cc V-Strom up to about 120 MPH no problem. I might experiment with removing the luggage and top case, a la 'GT' style. That may do it. I kinda expected this bike to feel and handle "like on rails" at speed, as the saying goes. If it did, I would think this may be the perfect big sport tourer. but, alas, it does not. I will say this though, despite being heavy, and very top heavy, it is pretty amazing in the twisties. On country roads, going at a good clip, it is everything I hoped it would be. Sadly, more often than not, I'm taking the Interstate to get to the roads I really enjoy. So, for anyone thinking of buying a K16GT/L or B, take it out on the highway before you sign off on it.

I have one. The standard windscreen is an abomination. Changed it for a Wunderlich screen, which is too big and in summer temperatures much too hot. Furthermore, fast touring on small roads is a hassle, my upper body hurts from dragging this big thing through tight low speed corners after a day's ride. It is inmensely heavy to handle at standstill or low speeds. The stock seat is ridicilous, had it changed by a seating specialist. Although looking large from outside the panniers are very small inside, I can't put my helmet in it, a loptop case hardly fits and the maximum allowed weight is not very much. I can't see any reason for this bike existence rather then being a show piece for the BMW factory. Even the audio system is bad, speakers are absotely useless and changing the audio output to you bluetooth headset only makes the music audible at moderate speeds, on the motorway the sound is drowned by the wind- and engine noise. It is comfortable for long rides on motorways, but there it ends. Now I hate it and soon it has to go. Changing to a lighter more nimble bike like a 1000XR.

PROBLEM areas are: (4:30) Ugliest handlebars ever made on anything. Lawnmower handles look better. #2 wind buffeting. That from multiple reviewers all over the internet. #3 Saddle bag doors and latches. German over-engineering. Too small and cut off way too high off the ground. Has a funny looking "T" shape from the back. #4 Ugly dashboard and gauges. It looks old. #5 Microscopic touch screen. There is no excuse BMW, its 2019 for fuck sake. #6 top bag cannot hold a large helmet and there is no option for removal (Grand America). #7 Leg/foot position. Its either slightly back or way up. Its not bad but its also not premium. #8 Oil Change procedure. Retarded. #9 Paint. Too limited. #10 Its amazing. Even after all that, it is one bad ass bike. Power, safety features, overall look, suspension, amazing. Its just so hard to look past 1-9 when its time to put down money. It also reminds me of how liberal Germans are and their self hatred. Makes me want to gag.

You don't go to Europe to understand touring bikes, you have to go to America because America has longer and larger stretches of highways than Europe. We have highways that are 3,000 miles of uninterrupted highways. Europe has no such thing. Goldwings are the ultimate tourers. Always have been and always will be. These guys are confusing cruisers and tourers at points. They really don't know their shit. If you're going to use American terms, at least understand what they mean.

The BMW K1600 GTL is a better touring bike than the Goldwing in almost every measurable way. It has more power, better technology, more comfort, better handling, and more storage capacity. The only advantage the Wing has over the BMW is its dealership network which is critical for touring riders. If repairs are necessary while out on the road, you're never far away from a local Honda dealership. Not so with BMW. That fact alone might sway my decision as to which bike to buy, but as to which is the best bike, the Beamer hands down, IMHO.

lol, you don't need to point out the differences of both bikes. of course they are different but clearly the BMW's silhouette is similar, including the style--- and yes! I'm a huge fan of Japanese bikes. Japan revolutionize motorcycles! Back in the hay days every other nation was still riding around in their unreliable carbureted café racers with drum brakes, and than Japanese came out with electric start, disk brakes and change the motorcycle world forever!.... PS, theres nothing wrong with my English, MATE!

@@takingoutthetrash1512 I hate to tell you this, MATE, but actually there is a LOT wrong with your English, taking your last reply as an example. Your tenses are wrong, your punctuation needs work, and your grammar sucks. I know English is not the subject here, but since you choose to communicate in English, I can point out the obvious, especially since you like calling other people stupid. Your English is poor! That is a fact. Another fact is that if you really think there is nothing wrong with your English, that shows just how poor your English skills actually are.

lol hahahahahahahahaha omg dude wow... you are a legend!

Too bad they're so unreliable.

All BMW K1600 have serious issue - They all pull to the left! My one pull so hard that if I barely touch handlebar in split second I am on left lane. ( after hour ride my shoulder is in agony from constant pull handlebar to correct it and BMW don’t seem see the problem like I will not pay £ 24000) And after owning this bike for 3 months from brand new and having already swap engine for new one I can truly said it’s crappy bike. Go do yourself favor and bike Japanese bike

You should see your BMW dealer. I'm on my 6th BMW and have never had this issue. The problem is YOUR bike, not BMW.

Have to admit, it's a known problem on these bikes.

It's a documented issue but to be fair mine has never done this, and if it should show up during your test ride make the dealer find you one that doesn't before you agree to purchase, or pick another bike or go somewhere else.

@@gwilymhowes6422 It's a fair bit of both BMW and a dealer issue, if under warranty and the dealer will not resolve it then BMW MUST step in and resolve it, because it's a known problem. I am surprised there hasn't been a transparent investigation into cause and resolution. The dealer should be disclosing known maintenance concerns for a given model and any potential stuff that might pop up given how well documented they are in the riding community. I only know what I know because I went above and beyond the level most would go to research it myself, the dealer said squat about this bike that was at all informative about it's maintenance aspects.

This is why I seldom travel outside of roundabouts.
