Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW K 1600 GT 2014

BMW K 1600 GT 2014

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.

Pleasant, completely relaxed seating position

excellent electronics from traction control to semi-active suspension

ABS Pro

shift assistant

much sportier to drive than the dimensions suggest.

Cockpit already looks a little outdated in contrast to the built-in technology

Kawasaki GTR 1400 2009

Kawasaki GTR 1400 2009

There is hardly anything left that has not been improved on the GTR. Many things are much better, some a little better. But everything is directly perceptible to the rider and increases the feeling of well-being on tour.

Technical innovation

heated grips

comfort

electrically adjustable windshield

traction control

ABS

positive handling.

Solution with the tank bag not convincing

glove compartment no longer available

mirrors do not offer 100% rear view
