BMWK1600GTL 2014 - 2015

　　The release of the 2014 BMW K 1600 GTL brought to the market a high-class touring motorcycle that featured the most compact, narrowest, and most efficient engine ever installed on a production motorcycle.

　　The ergonomics of the GTL were designed especially for long hauls with features that generated comfortable riding. The slim design in the seating area and the handlebar stretched toward the rider generated a relaxed upright seating position.

　　The light alloy bridge-type chassis provided excellent handling with the help of the Duolever suspension on the front and the Paralever suspension on the rear. As an optional feature, the ESA II (Electronic Suspension Adjustment II) ensured that the GTL had a smooth drive with the damping and suspension adapted to any road situation and preference at the press of a button.

　　Another optional feature available for the GTL was the Adaptive Headlight which ensured a high level of safety by adjusting the lens to the braking and accelerating variations and leaning angle.

　　In terms of performance, the 2014 BMW K 1600 GTL had its heartbeat set by the 1649 cc four-stroke liquid-cooled engine also used on its predecessors with the power of 160 hp at 7,500 rpm and 175 Nm (129 lb-ft) of torque at 5,000 rpm. The power was sent to the rear wheel through a six-speed manual transmission joined to a shaft.
