Review: 2023 BMW K1600B – Power, Prestige, and Pure Riding Bliss The 2023 BMW K1600B is not just a motorcycle—it’s a grand touring experience engineered for those who demand everything. It blends jaw-dropping performance with true long-distance luxury, wrapping it all in a low-slung, menacing silhouette that turns heads before the engine even starts. At its heart lies BMW’s iconic 1,649cc inline-six engine—effortless, smooth, and powerful. With torque available practically off idle, the K1600B launches with authority and cruises with grace. There’s a reason this powerplant has a cult following: it’s mechanical perfection. But the performance is only half the story. What sets the K1600B apart is the way it pampers the rider. Heated grips and seats, an electronically adjustable windscreen, reverse assist, and keyless ride are just the beginning. This bike doesn’t just get you to your destination—it elevates the entire journey. And when it comes to safety, BMW delivers in full. With Dynamic ESA (Electronic Suspension Adjustment), Adaptive Headlights that follow the curve of the road, Hill Start Control, ABS Pro, and Dynamic Traction Control, the K1600B is as intelligent as it is powerful. The technology works seamlessly in the background, giving you total confidence in every condition. The massive 10.25” TFT display is crystal-clear and loaded with intuitive controls—navigation, bike status, ride data—all beautifully integrated with BMW’s best-in-class interface. Then there’s the presence. The styling is unmistakable: long, low, and loaded with attitude. The K1600B isn’t flashy—it’s commanding. Since the day I bought it, not once have I ridden it without getting at least one compliment. People literally flag me down at stoplights to say how incredible this bike looks. Once, a couple rolled down their window at an intersection just to shout their admiration—she even leaned across his lap to say it herself. It’s that kind of bike. Simply put, the 2023 BMW K1600B is a rolling masterpiece. It’s what happens when no compromises are made. If you’re looking for a motorcycle that redefines luxury touring while delivering uncompromising performance and safety, this is the one. Show less

Class leading MotoAmerica Super Stock 1000 racebike, build by the premier racing team, M4 Suzuki Team Hammer. The bike is very easy to ride, amazing handling, control, speed, braking and so much fun to ride on the track. As a race bike with a stock motor, very few race bike builds will provide a more competitive race package. This same bike build won the 2021 MotoAmerica Stock 1000 championship with Cam Petersen.

Bought as my first bike and love every bit of it. I am 6'5" @ 230. This bike fits me well I can flat foot it easily. Riding position is comfortable. This bike has enough power to go 90 with me on it and still have more to give. I added the Triumph frame sliders and passenger grab rails. The passenger grab rails are a must if you are riding with someone. With my wife(140) and I this bike will go 80 and still want to go faster if needed. Bike has ABS,traction control, rider modes, and a quick shifter. You can also tame the throttle for new riders too get use to the power before unleashing it all. I love this bike and would recommend it to anyone! Show less

Everything about this motorcycle rocks. Power, handling, brakes, software, comfort. Love it! So fast! WOW! The balancing characteristics are fabulous. Just so easy to drive in corners, and so safe feeling. Solid, as you’d expect! Show less

The **Ducati Multistrada 950S** strikes a perfect balance between performance, comfort, and versatility. With its 950cc engine, it offers **more than enough power** for spirited rides without being overly heavy or intimidating, making it a great option for both seasoned riders and those newer to adventure touring. Ducati is renowned for building **fast, high-performance motorcycles**, and the 950S lives up to that reputation with smooth acceleration and sporty handling. One of its standout features is its **comfort**—thanks to an upright riding position, plush seat, and advanced suspension, it's built for long-distance touring without fatigue. Add in Ducati’s premium build quality and advanced tech, and the 950S becomes an incredibly well-rounded machine that’s just as happy carving up twisty roads as it is cruising on the highway. While service can be a little pricey, that’s expected with most European brands. But the tradeoff is worth it—you're getting a bike that's incredibly fun to ride and built to perform. Show less

This Motorcycle is a great option for those that are looking for a reliable motorcycle to go on long distance hybrid cruising adventure, I haven't had a single problem with anything at all. Great Technology, I love the fact that it comes with cruise control for the highway. I love full efficiency and with the upgrades that I have made to it with the Akrapovic exhaust and LED lights it just makes it lovely to ride. I would recommend this bike 100% especially if this is your first cruiser, maybe it would be a great idea to purchase this bike before you buy a bigger cruiser. Show less

I'm writing as a passenger, which is maybe unusual. My husband and I have made several cross country trips from Wisconsin, mostly to Texas and Wyoming. The passenger seat on our 1995 Ultra Classic Electra Glide 30th Anniversary Edition is so comfortable, it's hard to do it justice here. I had back problems and pain in my legs, and on our first trip, I was worried about going on such a long ride on a motorcycle. But when we got to our destination, my aches and pains were gone. Maybe the steady vibration helped, but I couldn't believe the passenger seat was so soft and relaxing. My husband kept remarking how well it handled with two people, and it certainly felt like a smooth and effortless ride. I was only nervous when he took us on the Beartooth Pass going out of Yellowstone. When I peered over the edge of the mountain road (with no guardrails!) and saw the switchbacks a thousand feet below, it made me want to clutch the armrests, close my eyes, and sink into my seat. But we were in our sixties then, young and adventurous. If you're a passenger, I can't imagine a better motorcycle than one like this. Show less
