Pros and Cons in comparison
BMW R 18 2020

The BMW R 18 is a beautifully made motorbike. Everything about it is genuine. The big boxer will delight friends of the BMW brand, but also friends of extroverted mechanical motorbike technology. In driving mode, the engine is pleasant to dose and thus fits well with the accessible handling. The equipment options are almost limitless. In terms of driving dynamics, chassis and electronics package, BMW is not breaking any new ground. It is a well-made classic beautiful cruiser. The seating position heats up the tempers. During the test ride, however, the journalists coped well with it. It tends to be a little more difficult to sit on the bike with long legs.

If you want to have a broad model range, you also have to fill some niches. BMW, at any rate, is venturing into the manageable excavator segment with the K 1600 B - usually large tourers with flat lines. The K 1600 GT/GTL fits perfectly as a basis, because its equally powerful and cultivated six-cylinder in-line engine is just as much fun on long journeys as it is for spirited country road heating. Weighing over 330 kilos, it is surprisingly sporty to drive, but the heavy vehicle is not quite so fond of quick corrections.
