BMW’s given its six-cylinder luxo-touring K1600GT a makeover for 2017, with a heap of small mods. The motor and fuelling systems gets Euro-IV emissions compliance, thanks to a charcoal evaporative absorption canister for the fuel tank, and mapping changes.
The new bike also gets an optional emergency calling system, ‘Intelligent Emergency Call’. Dump your K, and it’ll ring BMW’s call centre, tell them which ditch you are currently upside down in, and they can tell the cops to come and put the cuffs on you.
There’s an optional reverse assist gizmo to help you park the bugger, new electronic suspension adjustment, and a quickshifter. Awesome.
