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.
Always a little more
Thanks to extensive optional equipment and original BMW Motorrad accessories, you can tailor your bike even more towards yourself and your trips. We also offer the comfort package and tour package from the factory: for instance, the comfort package offers Shift Assist Pro, which allows you to shift gears without having to operate the clutch. Thanks to audio system 2.0 and the LED additional headlight, the tour package offers both audible and visual highlights. And it goes without saying that the latter applies especially to the Option 719 seat and Option 719 forged wheels optional equipment.
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.
