We left at 8am, the Ducati arrived for lunch at 11, the BMW at 1130, the Harley at noon. The Ducati drank too much waiting, the Harley was in traction and unfit to continue. The BMW then had it the way he wanted it all along.
The year of the GT makes a difference as well. After 2016 BMW began a series of changes that slowed down the bike. Top speed was 160MPH/250KMH in the 2016 model. But as several have pointed out - this is big touring bike vs. a crotch rocket. The BMW weighs around 790 lbs. Love my 2016 GT!
@@Sequel7 you'll be disappointed in the Harley if you like performance.. if you like to look good and sound good, feet the hog. If you like to "ride" get the k. If you like to buy a bike and put $10 to $20k into it too make it better, get the hog. If you like to buy a bike a just put miles on it and use and abuse it.. get the hog. I have both.. the k1600b and s1000xr get more miles than the hogs... Insane my Softail has only been out of the garage once this season.
I did enjoy that and I was watching your mirrors for something arriving and it did. I do fancy a GT Sport 2020 in the silver/black and red pinstripe. I have an Electra Glide Ultra Limited 2018 at the moment, not selling it, it will be a good companion for the BMW. Nice music. Thank you. Gee.
I know what I would do to a K1600GT for it to beat the Panigale. The result wouldn't look anything like when it left the factory, would not have a stereo or navi or heated seats or anything, but would be such a cool monster. Sadly I don't have the spare money lying around to even think about it, so I just enjoy every chance I get to ride either one of the bikes ... XD
MirageGP yeah I’d agree I’ve owned or ridden most of them. Engine is killer while being comfortable. Gold wing is a lot softer, smaller tank, smaller luggage. I owned a zzr1400 for a few years. Not in the same league.
I bought a Concours, because of price. I was surprised that it did 170mph+ out of the box. Can't wait for the ecu tuning. Big tourers that haul butt are awesome!
MirageGP Happy to hear brother. My this is my first video i watched from your channel, and watched almost all of the prior ones. It’s my holy month of Ramadan right now, will be sure to keep you in my prayers for a quicker recovery! I don’t know if this is okay to ask: will you return on BMW? Or which bike?

@@miragegp i used to... well not everyday... my point is, the comparison is pointless, Panigale is a supersport bike, the GT is an Ultra cruizer, it cant go as fast as Ducati, that is not what is was made for, i couldnt go faster than 240 on GT, i wasnt stable anymore... going 300+ on a supersport is no problem at all...
Music ruined the video...😥😥😥
There was plenty of wind mate.
no it didnt
I agree. Wind or not, no need for this video game main menu screen music lol

Fair enough but they're all fun in their special way.
Impressive, 160mph smoothly, able to ride 100’s of miles in a day comfortably & can grab your groceries on the way home. What more could you want
Exactly!
I know who was more comfortable?
Me too!
How are you keeping Bruce?

I was not aware of that - I know they improve them over time...
This is my second option of a bike. I want a bike that’s more comfortable. I have a 600rr, I’m also looking at the Harley road glide

200hp Gs 160. Light race track/sport vs heavy luxury touring. The BMW did great.
GT is fantastic bike, probably the best for high speed touring. If one wants to ride a bit slower, RT is there.
@@miragegp
100% agree.
I have a 2018 K1600GT and it is a cruise missile that goes like the wind!
I was hoping for K1600S...
What price did you get it at?
@@sinister2423 $29K CDN
@@iveywin Ah that's reasonable. Due to import taxes it costs $51k for me.

Thats like "Rolls Royce vs. Formula 1 car Top Speed...." What did you expect? Build for entirely different purposes, both doing a marvelous job at it!
I didn't expect anything, we went for a ride together and that's what happened :-)
I know which one has the better stereo system and navigation... :)

You're not supposed to get passed like that man. However, it is a Ducati Panigale. We will make an exception. 😂
Exactly, thanks for being kind!
K1600 is a beast of a tourer!
Probably the best on the market.

I chose the GTL over the Goldwing in fact just ordered it last week . GW won the popular vote but man the GTL just does it for me .
That Ducati had work for it, it took a long while to pass the BMW.
Difference in top speed is around 40km/h
I have 22hp extra on my k1600gt plus extreme comfort with back rest
Remus full exhaust
Brentune stage 1

Nice!
❤️🔥🔥BMW K1600 GTL 🔥🔥❤️ 👍👍👍
Glad you like!
Would you still recommend this bike? I got a Yamaha MT-09 now.
It's completely different ride to MT-09.
@@miragegp Sold the MT-09 to try the comfort side of a bike. Not disappointed :D. Still got the speed.
Hey, approx 240 km/ with a 340 kg heavy bike, vs a racemonster < 200 kg. And the K1600 can run over 270 km (or faster with Brenntuning).
I found that stock it sits at 260km/hr but we're on high altitude so that may be the factor as well.

Great bike.
Just ordered mine . Excited

@@robbyrose6904 Enjoy!
Ive just bought a 2012 gtl on 4k kms. It like new!
Was there ever any doubt?
It was fun figuring it out though.
When brain disconnects, these are the few seconds in life when you can do unrecoverable mistakes. Anyway the K is an amazing motorcycle.
And life goes on...
I'll take the GT. At least you'll be able to walk straight with no pain at the end of a day ride unlike the torture rack of a Panigale.
Anyone knows what the background music is?
Mozda ja kao autor mogu da pomognem? 😉

what top speed??
260km/hr
Love the bike
It is a great machine.
funny to me that you're chasing squid. :-)
We were just playing.

Well... The video is a joke 😁😁😁😁
While GT struggles to hold on 250kmh, the Ducati cruises past it at 300kmh... 🤣🤣🤣
And let me guess, you ride 300km/h every day, on your way to work?
