cocos wiled camping is good and not to far from forest fields but the hunderd house is closer

I know I'm late to your vid. Excellent job! I'm considering getting one of these and it's nice to get a warts and all review.

I've just bought a 2014 SE with comfort pack for a smidge over £5k. Has sat nav + new tyres, K16GT reg and BMWSH.

Reverse doesn’t work? One fog light not working. Wow, what a piece of junk. My buddy had one like yours, camshaft snapped, $6,000 to replace. He was so happy to sell it.

What???3 sets of tires at 19k miles?? I easily get 19k miles on ONE a set of tires on my Goldwing! You mentioned something about changing the gearbox, why? Sounds like a junk quality bike.

Has BMW addressed any of the mechanical issues in the newer models 23 & 24 year bikes. Crazy that such a good looking machine has so many issues. Although my HD has 23,000 miles on it had to replace the inner primary seal a $20 part but it cost me $760 bucks in labor due to the fact the entire left side of the primary has to come off. I’d imagine if you’re handy with a wrench a lot of the mechanical stuff can be done at home.

Lovely motorcycle!!

Is there a part 4? Can’t see one listed but this video ends with “next time… Ronda”

You’re not supposed to use your quick shift in and out of first.

Great review, thank you for doing this. Seriously considering one.

Great vid Please can you sent the ride out routes?

I’ve got one of these, I downgraded from my previous bike for something smaller and lighter, I’m made up with it, it also came with free panniers and heated grips.

I've had my 2012 GTL for almost three years now. I've had a faulty ignition coil, a leaky water pump (just stain on the heat shield, no where near causing me any trouble), a cam chain rattle, and oil consumption (0.3~0.4L every 1000 miles). I still love this bike every time I go on a thousand-mile trip.

Great video mate 👍🏽

This bike is beautiful! The color is beautiful too. How tall are you? I'm thinking about upgrading to the K1600. But I'm tall. I'd like to know the opinion of someone who already has this bike.

I traded my K1600B in for a full tour DCT Honda Gold Wing. I still miss the agility and performance of the Bagger!

Used to live near Alcala. Thanks for the memories of those wonderful vistas. Subbed.

Really enjoyed the review and ride. Looking to buy a bike, leaning between this, a Spyder F3, or a Super Adventure S. But really like this one. How is slow speed manuevering? If I do service at good intervalls and replace wear parts like bearings and such in time, what kind of life expectancy may I get? Looking to replace car for bike. Is 300,000 Km too much to ask? Cheers from Swede in Mexico

This was massively enjoyable.....Your commentary on the bikes maintenance expenses were interesting. MORE! MORE! Showing us some of your UK countryside was very different from what I am used to seeing here in the States. Please feel free to include a lot more of that in your future videos..............Liked/Subbed

Reverse, radiator, gearbox, pannier, burning oil…. He may not have had a final drive failure (yet), But come on. I’ll be the first to admit the BMW makes a beautiful machine. They also ride incredibly well. When they are running, which is, of course, the huge caveat. I got burned on a GSA that had the final drive shit itself at 26,000 miles when I was on my yearly vacation and I was 300 miles away from a BMW dealership. Took a day to find a way to get the bike to the dealership took another day to get the bike to the dealership then I had to sit for a week and a half for them to get the final drive replaced. It ruined my vacation. I will never forgive them for it.

I had a K1200 for 10 years, and loved it. The engine was like an electric motor, quiet, smooth and pulled in any gear. It sounds like the K1600 engine is similar.

You can change the Digital display in the settings, It will replace the radio Display, But you cant have the two of them on at the same time, it will only give you the speed in the radio wiindow.

Great video, thanks for sharing enjoyed it a lot.. I'm hoping to moto camp soon, just purchased the gear but waiting on a good weather forecast as not as brave as you. love the triumph, dream bike for me 🏕🏍🏍

It's a really beautiful bike for sure ❤

Great review, this inline 6 is butter smooth, it’s unbelievable. I test drove the 2023 model today, K1600 GT. In 2 minutes I felt right at home, and I’ve never been on a BMW bike before, the sales person recommended I run out the 350 kilometres of gas the tank had left 😂. I wish but no way, since they had taken my visa before the test drive, just in case something was to happen. I have never, ever, in the past 18 years of riding motorcycles rode one without the proper moto GP outfit/gear. Frankly, I could not believe the sales person utter the words,” I wish you can test drive the bike but you have no helmet.” I was like what! But this is the best motorcycle and motorcycle gear store in the country 🇨🇦 . So after 15 minutes I was hooked, on the highway I felt like I was on a jetski, the bike is so planted, effortless and it was on rain mode. It had rained a few prior, just to get to the store, it was a 150 kilometre drive for me. So I could not turn down his welcoming offer. So easy to ride, I honestly felt the nimbleness of my Gxsr 750 and beyond the power of my 109R. Just superior in every way. Smooth like Michael jackson moonwalk, like the,” Luke, I’m you father 🤣. Wow just amazing. The one think I didn’t Ike was when a trelease the throttle, I felt some kind of engine braking. That I found weird. I assume it was because of the mode I was on. Ride safe everyone. I pray to God one day I can get the 2023 model GLT, for the wife and I.

I've been a cruiser guy for nearly 20 years now, and I've been looking at getting a more comfortable long-haul type bike. Several years ago I had a friend of mine, a motorcycle state policeman, mention he would get a BMW if he had his pick. My in-laws have been long term Goldwing riders. I've watched several videos on the K1600, but this video has convinced me. Time to get away from the good ol' American V Twin and upgrade. Besides, my middle aged body is getting too old to take all the bumps nowadays. Thanks for the good content! By the way, the blurring of the speedo is a good editing trick, lol!

Nice video and the campsite was? Maybe i missed it?

My 2012 K1600GT has 135000 miles still going strong. Great bike, heavy, expensive to maintain, lack of dealer support

Great review. Love the sound track of that beautiful 6, sounds like a Formula 1🤩. Any desire to change the wind screen or seat?

Promo sm 💐

210 hp.. great looking bike!!

Just a quick thought, wouldn't it have been better to sell it over there and buy the newer nc750 in England save all the faffing about with import and speedo ect 🤔

6:36 I'd also think that along side the heat was dust and sand 😮

2:49 it's not, that's a myth that needs to be dropped, the car engineering division collaborated for the first time with honda motorcycles on this nc engine, but that's it 😊

Good Video. i have the Triumph tiger 1200 GT Pro and i love it. when i don't use the bike or when i park up i do switch my key fob off. At least it was only something simple

Enjoyable video but *please* find less boring music to accompany the riding footage. So repetitive. Thanks

Think I'd taken cover for the bike , just to tuck it in at bedtime 😅

This is THEE BEST owner review of a 1600GT I've seen so far 👏

Looks like you had a good trip Rally Explorer is any good just one of the bikes I’m considering Would you recommend it

What you pointed was an oil radiator, so water cooled bike was overheating due to oil radiator damage, sorry but it sounds weird to me. I have GTL and yes radiator can get blocked due to dirt from the road and even get damaged by stones but in most of the cases all you need it just pull radiator out, pretty simple and give a good cleaning and it works fine, done on my bike couple times, currently have 61 thousand miles on the clock.

Really great to see you enjoying our campsite . If you had just popped over to reception I would have jumped started you in minutes… great video 😊

I really need to get some camping done this year, great vid nice and chilled no matter what was thrown at you ON CAMERA 🤣🤣👍

4:14 that was the curry 😅 👋🤠👍

Dear LORD, what a view! Great video, the only thing I'd change/add is a few minutes of on bike sound - that Tiger growl is a fantastic sound to listen to :) Cheers from Poland!

How you finding the triumph? Im picking mine up this weekend, going from a gen 1 xc to the explorer.

A really enjoyable video - no frills or any unnecessary chatter. Nice to be able to enjoy some of the routes in mid Wales (an area I know very well) with some pleasant easy listening background music. Well done. 👏 👏👌🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏍️

Nice part of the country, even when wet, thanks for posting 👍👍

Great stuff dude, whether could of been better, take a chance this time of year, lovely scenery. Shame bike let you down, seems strange as you have put a few miles on your bike regarding charging. Maybe electrical problem? Cold weather shouldn't affect the bike, it's a fairly new bike. My battery on my k1600 lasted 8 years, good going😁 Hope you enjoyed your evening with your son. Is he into bikes? Have you still got your k1600?

Thks for bringing us along. I like the no talk during the ride and then the overview after the ride. Good job.

Why didn't you consider the FJR Yamaha 1300 IV had 2 the first a 06 with 164000kms and a 2012 with the heated grips it's what I own now it's got 41000kms and will probably be the last bike IV also got a Honda CB 125E for commuting
