    I owned f6b and enjoyed much.Traded for 2019 wing owned 6 weeks never connected.So I sold that and bought 2019 k1600b.Wow do I like this bike , it's perfect for me.I don't anticipate parting with this motorcycle. Gear shift assist is amazing, the bike rides so smooth.I've never owned bmw and their weird to a lot of people but I don't mind .The handling in corners is well much sporty.Actually this bike is sport tourer in my opinion. Lots of good motorcycles to choose from

    I may be wrong(I was once)but I think R18 is referring to that new huge boxer twin from BMW.

    Not sure I understand. The comparison was a 2018 Goldwing tour and the BMW 1600, not sure of the model. They were very similar to each other.
    “Gibraltar” 2016 white deluxe has been sold.

    Yeah, you're right. My bad. I thought I had seen a reference in this thread somewhere to the new BMW R18 Cruiser. That makes twice!

    I sold my 3rd B for a BMW K1600GT. Its a freaking Torque Monster. But I did put a pair of headers on it and then added a Bren Tune. But oh my goodness the HP and Torque make me grin and smile whenever I ride it. Just took it on a 1600 mile trip. Its a 2019. Bought it from a guy with 287 miles on it for 19k after he paid 28k for it the year before. Still has 2 years of warranty on it. There are some differences. But 100 lbs lighter then the B and with all kinds of HP and Torque and Electronics.
