The German Bagger - BMW K1600B

  • BMW certainly knows how to produce really great motors and in the K1600 motorcycle series they install a fantastic inline 6 cylinder 1649cc motor. You just have to experience this motorcycle and I had the privilege of testing and riding the B for Bagger. Not only that, also fully specked with pretty much every conceivable extra from cosmetic to technical to Option 719 and an exhaust to behold....... Big 6 cylinder, with quick-shifter, a monstrous push into the plush seat as the power gets unleashed, topping it all off with a F1 sounding quad Remus exhaust.

    The first review I watch where the test rider actually is excited about the bike and actually running at higher speeds.
    Already watched it a couple of times and enjoyed it a lot. Thank you.

    I bought a new K1600b 2 1/2 months ago and after 8,000 miles I realize it is near perfect. I did ride a 2022 HD Road Glide Special about 10 days ago. In no way is the HD comparable to the BMW! The BMW is ten times the bike, period!

      Does it wobble at high speeds? If so, do you have a solution for it that you can share?

    The R button on the left handle bar is the REVERSE GEAR 😉.
    It must be in NEUTRAL, apply the brake and then press the R button. Now use the STARTER button to go back (the reverse gear is basically the starter motor).

    Great review! You overlooked the reverse, see that button “R” on the right side of the left handlebar..? That’s the reverse 😎. I currently drive a K16B with the Remus from 2019, awesome bikes! This Midnight color is awesome, I’ll probably upgrade at some point 😏, there’s just no comparison.

    Hi there, i do believe there is a R button on the left side grip to activate reverse.
    Excellent ride great to see it ridden as most will. 👍👍👍👍

      Not sure I you rode this bike? I owned 1, and although the power and handling are unmatched by any other bike in this category, the instability of this bike is unbelievable.
      The bike is very unstable at speeds, especially over 150kph. That's why the grand America is restricted. it was life-threatening.
      also, the bike has a very bad left pull.
      The wing is very stable.
