What's changing in 2022

bMW has decided to dedicate 2022 to travel. Its recent big custom is reinforced by an R 18 B bagger and an R 18 Transcontinental Tourer. The 6-cylinder range is extensively revised, with the K 1600 GT / GTL / B / Grand America facelifted and upgraded with electronics. A number of new colors and an enriched options catalog round off this vintage.
