The navigation quite literally also sets new standards. In full-screen mode, the display stands out with its 1,920x720 pixels in full HD resolution. You know your ways - but from now on you will also enjoy discovering new ones.

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.

Enthralling engine

An engine like a legend. And is there anything better than bringing legends to life with a spin? Its smoothness, superior character and performance values simply remain unattainable.

Integrated smartphone charging compartment

You should reach the destination set in the navigation, not the end of your smartphone's battery: the splash-proof and specially ventilated charging compartment features a USB-C connection.

Configurable Favourites buttons

It's great to have everything at hand when you're away from home: you can assign your favourite functions to the four buttons.

High-quality Option 719 Classic forged wheel

The Option 719 forged wheel demonstrates where you've come from - and where you are heading. Production and design correspond to the highest quality and are a synonym for outstanding taste.

Brilliant 10.25" TFT display

The 10.25" TFT colour display with integrated map navigation and connectivity opens up new worlds for you, not only in terms of readability, menu navigation and operating concept.

Generous luggage and storage space

Cases and topcase offer enough space for everything you need on your journey and there is plenty of room for those mementos that you won't want to be without when you're back at home.

Powerful LED headlights

Make discoveries and see the world in new light - thanks to the new, full LED headlight with adaptive headlight, you can interpret this idea quite literally.

A special sound experience that is included in the standard scope offers perfect interaction and the right backdrop for your travelling experience. In addition, it is intuitive to use and features menu navigation.
