Featured gallery: BMW's new six cylinder motorcycles
When BMW dropped its stunning Concept 6 out of the blue last year, the intention to revive the inline six was clear… and here it is. The new K 1600 GT and K 1600 GTL touring motorcycles are being offered with the company's 6-cylinder in-line engine – a 118 kW (160 bhp) unit producing maximum torque of 175 Nm which, at 102.6 kg, is billed as the lightest and most compact serial production 6-cylinder in-line engine in a motorcycle over 1000 cc to date. The new tourers also pack some top-shelf tech... check the gallery for loads of images from BMW as well as those we snapped at Intermot 2010 where the bikes are on show this week.
