BMW K 1300 GT 2009

The engine now produces 160 hp and 135 Nm. This should make further comments on driving performance superfluous. Sitting upright with the windshield extended, you can accelerate to over 250 km/h with absolute ease. Only at this point do you start to think a little about the poor engine - below this, it is simply completely underpowered, always and everywhere.

Relaxed riding feel

confident turn-in behaviour

strong engine - lots of power

efficient windshield.

Handling disadvantages in bends.
