What's changing in 2017

another big year for BMW, which is upgrading virtually its entire range. S 1000 RR, S 1000 R, S 1000 XR, K 1600 GT and GTL are all upgraded. The R 1200 GS, R 1200 R, R 1200 RS and R 1200 RT are also adapted to Euro4. The Heritage range is strengthened with the NineT Pure, Racer and Urban G/S, while the original NineT is updated. On the trail side, an all-new G 310 GS takes its place in the catalog. A K 1600 B bagger joins the road-going segment. The F 800 R, GS, Adventure, GT and 700 GS receive Driving Modes. The K 1600 GTL Exclusive finish is not renewed. The Triple Black name returns, this time for the R 1200 GS Adventure. Finally, an HP4 Race prototype announces a very special full-carbon S 1000 RR series.

Non-compliant sixth-gear sets have been fitted to gearboxes replaced during a previous workshop intervention. This can lead to excessive wear on the control intervals during prolonged driving at full load in sixth gear. In the event of a malfunction, the gears may not shift properly, or two gears may be shifted at the same time. The rear wheel could lock up and/or the gears could be damaged, increasing the risk of an accident.
