been there
Stopped by my local local multi brand dealer today for a inspection sticker on the KTM. Service manager asked me if I wanted to demo the K1600 GTL they had while I was waiting .
He pointed out a few things on it and off I went with the instructions to not be gone too long.
I road it about 20 miles on the interstate and 15 miles two lane roads.
On the interstate it was smooth with good wind protection .On the two lane it handled great held its line and did not become unsettled when changing lines once in the corner.
It has plenty of motor and the drive by wire throttle is not jerky but smooth acceleration . At slow speeds in the parking lot it was well balanced .
Only downside I experienced was slight heat on my left foot but it was in the low 90's here.
Looks like BMW has a winner here, now what can I sell off so I can get one ?
