Default Anyone ordered a K1600?

I have just ordered a GTl with SE spec and should be here late March!

My first big tourer

Fed up with commuting in a car and getting stuck in traffic.

BMW Motorrad UK. New Motorcycles. Information.

Default may order one myself

currently own a 06 ultra classic, and i do enjoy it, but you have to ride within its limits, which i tend to exceed too much. many saves from going into corners too hot, so i will probably go with the 1600. not sure if it will be the gt or gtl. after owning the s1000rr i am impressed by bmw engineering and hope my expectations are not too high. i have owned many supersport bikes over the years and hope these new tourers can really be hustled, when the road beckons. will be looking forward to a review from you in the spring.

I thought it would be more....I have a Kawasaki Vulcan cruiser that I enjoy riding and was thinking of changing, I'll wait on your review then make a decision.

Just stay away from all years of the P38 unless you get it running with working EAS for dirt cheap, im talking less than $500 US & anything with the 4.0, 4.2 & 4.6 block unless you check it beforehand for a "slipped liner" by someone that knows what he is doing. Oh & dont forget that rover dosnt even sell/make those bare blocks anymore but will someday!!
