BMW’s new K1600 GT will go on sale for £14,950 when it arrives in dealers next month, whilst customers looking at the K 1600 GTL will be expected to part with £16,515.

The standard spec K 1600 GT packs in a host of features as standard, including three engine power modes, self-levelling Xenon headlights, 5.7-inch high quality LCD dashboard display, heated seats and grips, cruise control, ABS and colour-matched panniers.

The GT SE, priced at £15,765, adds adaptive headlights, dynamic traction control and tyre pressure control whilst the £16,515 GTL adds an integrated audio system, colour coded box top, chrome body kit, comfort footrests and comfort windshield to the standard spec GT

Those looking for adaptive headlights, DTC and tyre pressure control on their GTL will be expected to part with £17,315 for the GTL E model.

“The new six-cylinder tourers are the most technologically advanced bikes ever built for the road and feature the first ever Adaptive Headlight on a motorcycle, said Ian Furse, BMW Motorrad UK Sales Manager. “The standard level of equipment on these bikes is incredibly high but owners can take it even higher with options including Dynamic Traction Control, Electronic Suspension Adjustment II, a GPS navigation system which integrates with the fuel range computer and an iPod/USB stick compatible Audio System.

“The stunning engine, the most compact six-cylinder motorcycle powerplant currently in production, combined with the use of lightweight materials and construction techniques previously only found on supersports machines, mean that the K 1600 GT and GTL offer a truly premium experience. And with the announcement of these prices, we can offer this class-leading package at truly competitive prices. With these two bikes, BMW Motorrad has created a new category of performance touring motorcycles.”

From 19 March, visitors to BMW Motorrad dealerships will be able to book test rides and see these motorcycles in showrooms for the first time. For more information, visit www.bmw-motorrad.co.uk
