DATA & EQUIPMENT.

BMW K 1600 Grand America.

A long, drop-shaped silhouette and a deep, laid-back seat height: The Grand America is an obvious textbook example of a luxury touring bike. It also has a 6-cylinder in-line engine with a powerful thrust and its legendary running culture. When riding is this laid-back and enjoyable, even the longest routes are too short.
