Your appearance counts
Relaxed cruising in total luxury, always keeping the horizon in sight: this is the world of the K 1600 B. Every moment, every impression counts in this vast expanse. And above all, it’s about the impression you leave behind.
Exclusive
Superior in any environment, whether its tight inner-city jungles or riding along endless landscapes: the K 1600 B Exclusive. Your paintwork in Manhattan metallic matt emphasises its cool character. It is particularly impressive with highlights including the front wheel mudguard in body colour and the engine spoiler in Night black matt.
Blackstorm metallic
This K 1600 B is distinguished by its clear lines. From the front-wheel cover to the engine spoiler and cases, the outline is a homogeneous unit in elegant black.
Option 719 Casablanca
The brilliance of the Ionic Silver metallic paintwork is allowed to unfold through the black, hand-painted lines. Combined with the Option 719 seat and Option 719 Classic forged wheels, this K 1600 B exudes real class.
Complete package
With the K 1600, you can always do a little more. Not only in terms of mileage. Thanks to extensive optional equipment and Original BMW Motorrad Accessories, you can turn the bagger into exactly the bike you want. Optionally benefit from the comfort package and tour package. The comfort package features Keyless Ride and shift assistant Pro – for even more relaxed cruising. The tour package, for example, impresses with the audio system 2.0 or comfortable footboards. We have put together two equipment variants to inspire you.
The K 1600 B is proof that you can perfectly swim against the tide if things are streamlined. The elongated, typical bagger outline with its low rear section combines an elegant, casual character with a powerful presence. The entire bike has been fully geared towards you and your perfect tour: from things that are immediately obvious, such as the footboards, to the equipment you can only experience once you have taken a seat, such as the cockpit. It demonstrates a completely new design idiom: clear-cut and functional. The 10.25″ TFT colour display now even features a hardened and anti-reflective cover lens for optimum readability. The K 1600 B leaves everything to you when it comes to experiencing the trip, yet nothing happens by chance.
Can you measure a casual character in numbers? You can with the K 1600 B: thanks to its revamped engine control unit, it now develops the 160 hp nominal power an impressive 1,000 rpm earlier than before, while the increased maximum torque of 180 Nm is already available at 5,250 rpm: for even more intensity, superior tractive force and a more powerful appearance. For every straight line, every overtaking manoeuvre, every bend – or just for you. In keeping with this, the riding modes have now been designed to be even more emotional, with the engine brake control and Dynamic ESA guaranteeing the necessary stability and safety. And all of this is as casual to handle as it sounds.
Exclusive: New color scheme Mineral gray metallic matte. Manhattan metallic matte is discontinued.
