  • CategoryStreet / Touring

If the neatly packaged inline-six-cylinder engine that powers the new K1600GTL is anything like the famously smooth Sixes found in BMW's luxury automobiles, motorcyclists are in for a real treat. The fully faired, luggage-equipped K1600GTL is clearly designed for touring, but with a claimed peak output of 160 hp and 129 ft.-lb. of torque, get-up-and-go should be impressive, too. Standard amenities include a full-coverage windshield, a rear top case and a sound system with iPod compatibility and Bluetooth interface for cell phone use with optional speaker-equipped helmets.
