BMW Motorrad has been on a roll lately, launching a host of new products seemingly every month for the last year. The company's introduced new off-roaders, new touring bikes, and even a few sportier options. One model in its lineup, however, hasn't been treated to the same level of new pomp and circumstance, and that's the brand's touring-focused bagger: the K 1600.
Designed as a compromise between a touring and a Harley-style cruiser, the K 1600 lineup is built to give riders the comfort and convenience of the former, with the style and execution of the latter. That's a fancy way of saying it's a cool-looking bike that doesn't suffer from the headaches of a traditional cruiser.
But the K 1600 could either be changing or, far more likely, be introducing a new model to the fold, as the company is teasing in its recent social media post. And if my hunch is correct, the new model is one designed to compete with Harley-Davidson and Indian Motorcycles in the King of the Baggers competition, or at least look the part.
