Good for?

Is the BMW K 1600 GTL good for beginners?

The BMW K 1600 GTL makes 118 kW (160 hp) @ 6750 rpm, so it is more bike than most riders want as a first motorcycle. It can be a great second bike once you have experience, and some markets sell a restricted version.

Is the BMW K 1600 GTL good for shorter riders?

Often yes. The 750mm seat height is on the lower side, so shorter riders frequently reach the ground with confidence. A low seat or lowering options can help further.

Is the BMW K 1600 GTL good for touring?

Yes, for range. The 26.5L tank gives a useful distance between fuel stops, which suits longer days. Real touring comfort also depends on the screen, seat and wind protection.
