*2021 BMW K 1600 GTL Elegance – 11,121 km – Manhattan Metallic – Immaculate*
A rare opportunity to own one of the finest long-distance touring motorcycles ever engineered.
This 2021 BMW K 1600 GTL Elegance has travelled just 11,121 kilometres, used exclusively for open-road touring (never commuting or stop-start traffic). Purchased new from BMW Motorrad Melbourne in October 2022, it has been serviced annually, carries a full BMW service history, and has always been garaged. The bike presents in as-new, absolutely mint condition with no scratches and no damage.
The K 1600 GTL is widely regarded as a phenomenon of modern motorcycle engineering. The inline-6 engine is silky smooth, delivers effortless, abundant torque, and makes long days in the saddle tirelessly enjoyable. Supremely stable, endlessly refined, and completely comfortable and quiet at touring speeds. This is the ultimate luxury touring machine.
This bike is the 'Elegance' specification, including:
- Adaptive headlights
- LED daytime running lights
- Central locking (with LED-lit top box – extremely practical)
- Hill Start Assist
- Gear Shift Assist
- Reverse gear (absolutely indispensable for a machine of this class)
Finished in the rare and stunning Manhattan Metallic (only in Elegance trim), the paint subtly shifts from metallic olive to bronze to bronze-grey depending on the light — far more striking in person than in photos.
Recently fitted with a brand-new set of Michelin Road 6 GT tyres front and rear.
Included with the sale:
- Genuine BMW Motorrad tank bag
- Full set of Wunderlich top box & pannier liner bags
- Highlight pegs for exceptional long-distance comfort
- Wunderlich PremiumShield complete paint-protection film (aircraft-grade protection against stone chips and scratches)
- Wunderlich hand guards
- Wunderlich side-stand enlarger
- Wunderlich front axle crash protectors
- Wunderlich front fender extender
Original ride-away price when new: $45,485. I’m selling only because I no longer have the time to ride. This bike deserves to be out on the open road, touring and being enjoyed as it was designed to be.
This is a genuine sale of a truly exceptional motorcycle. Low-ball offers will be politely declined.
