bmw Touring Bike reviews

Brand new bike under 300 miles. New windshield. One of the best handling sport touring bikes on the market. Fast and comfortable. Black exterior. Need to sell all of my bikes for personal reasons. The GT is one of BMWs greatest designs ever built the 6 Cylinder puts out over 160 hp with over 160 lbs of torque. 0-60 is 3.2 seconds. Show less

I've had a dozen different Bikes starting with a 1926 HD "F" head 61 with suicide shift. I've had Triumphs and Goldwings. The R1200 RT stands out as the most enjoyable ride. The passing capability is more than adequate. The power windshield and heated grips work well for a variety of weather conditions. The radio and new front and rear rubber makes you road ready. The low milage and winters in a heated garage keep this bike feeling young. Show less

This is an amazing touring bike. Very comfortable and easy to ride. It is also very responsive even with a passenger. Lots of suspension and comfort options that make it a pleasure to ride. Fuel milage is about 43 for me and have enjoyed many day trips on this bike. Show less

The K1600GTL Exclusive is an absolute beast with enough power and performance to out perform most large sport bikes. Comfort is un matched and is features like lean angle curb lighting, heated seats and grips, keyless everything with security and factory Garmin GPS. Cons: speakers Could be lauder but Shouldn't - IMO. No reverse or electric center stand. 2016 did not offer Dynamic cruise, just normal. Loved the bike from day one. Show less

This motorcycle is absolutely amazing ! I have owned it for 3 years and i have 0 complaints. It’s fast nimble and so much fun to blast around with . I would recommend this machine to anyone looking for a good time . Show less

Great all around motorcycle! Torque everywhere with shift-cam engine. Handelbar risers, Puig touring windscreen, locking side cases, keyless ignition, shift assist pro, dynamic suspension, and Navigator VI included. Just had 6,000 mile service, front tire was replaced (Michelin Pilot Pro,) and battery was replaced. Great for commuting, trips, and spirited back road riding. Show less

I have owned 19 motorcycles including Yamaha, BMW, Ducati, Honda , and Harley. Only Motorcycle I didn't want to get off of. The high miles are due to 4 round trips from California to Ohio and weekend trips to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Gettysburg, and Florida. Stable in turns and at highway speeds (85 ). Handles 2 up as easily as single rider comfortably. I have done 1075 miles in a single day and while a little sore completed 940 miles the following day. Never an issue. If you are considering this well rounded motorcycle you cant go wrong. BMW only produced this sport tourer for 3 years and shipped only 500 to the states. Show less

I’ve owned this K1200RS since 2004, and have ridden it all over the country. Miles and miles , one and two up. It has never been an issue riding all day for a week or more. As you riders know, this can be tiring, especially if you are not in riding shape. Wind buffering behind the stock windshield is almost non existent. Solid and confidence inspiring going along the interstate. Comfortable and planted while powering through corners of all types. Fun. This bike is solid as a “brick”. The aero dynamics are outstanding. Mechanically, I’ve never had even a small issue with this bike, ever. The BMW K12RS is an outstanding sport touring bike. Even at the age of this model, it’s still competitive with the Yamaha FJR and Kawasaki Concourse. Not as much horsepower or torque, but that is understandable considering the age of the motor and technology improvements etc. If you have an 02-04 with cruse control and heated seats you are riding an almost perfect bike, in my opinion. If I can think of anything else to add I’ll edit this as we go along. Show less

This BMW K1600GTL is in a word awesome. Ten years and 48k miles of trouble free riding. For a touring bike this is much faster than it needs to be. Acceleration is amazing. Riding quality has three settings sport normal and comfort and they all mean what they say. The adjust on the fly windshield is worth its weight in gold. The adapting headlight means never turning i to a corner without be able to see what’s there. I’ve ridden bikes over 50 years and if there is a faster more comfortable better quality bagger Ive never seen it. Show less

One of the best sport bikes I’ve ever owned. I’ve always owned zx10r’s and gsxr1000’s but this bmw s1000rr is nice. This bike has plenty of power compared to the others I’ve listed above. Handling is superior and comfortable Love the cruise control and the heated grips Show less
