Pros and Cons in comparison
BMW K 1600 GT 2019

Extremely cultivated straight-six engine with huge torque and plenty of power - but without any willingness to use force, simply a power unit of the highest sovereignty. Agile and nimble despite a live weight of 339 kg (fully fuelled). With Dynamic ESA, DTC, ABS Pro and shift assist, it is sporty and safe to drive.

It was predictable that the new R 1200 RT would perform even better with the new partially water-cooled boxer engine. Although 125 hp and 125 Newton metres of torque have quite a bit to haul with the 274 kilos ready to ride, the RT retains its unbelievable effervescence from below. This makes it extremely agile, especially on corner exit after a hairpin bend. In combination with the gearshift assistant Pro (which is, of course, available at extra cost), the gears just flow and you involuntarily move more sportily than you might have intended. The big bonus points of the R 1200 RT are its good workmanship, the simple and easy-to-follow operating principle and, last but not least, its small turning circle.
