This wiil be another problematic electronic device for BMW like their crappy ABS systems that are un reliable and expensive to fix. Hope this bike has less mechanical issues than their K1200 & K1300's. AKA Cam Chain failures, camshaft failures, rear drive failure and the list goes on.
@ridingary actually nothing but the dimensions. The GTL is a bit longer and the seat height is lower and of course some extras for the GT are basics in GTL like the central locks, hi-fi system etc.
WHERE WAS THIS FOOTAGE SHOT? It's somewhere around the Mediterranean Sea because of the vegetation. I would say even that's somewhere in the Iberian Peninsula. My guess is Portugal, correct?
Pois é aqui no Brail está previsto chegar essa moto em junho de 2011 ao preço de R$ 106.000,00, já tenho R$ 6.000,00, quero ver quanto tempo vou levar para comprar uma.

I wonder how the sound its going to change if you mount some Akrapovic or Yoshimura exaust system (if they make ones for the in`line 6 engine). The way it sounds now is boring, reminds me of a vacuum cleaner :)
yup...if i had the money i'd hv one like a shot too - every bike is different and worth trying....the only set back for me is the weight - being a woman of 50 at 47kg, it might be too heavy .....
i'm now riding a yamaha fjr1300 - suits me fine thus far
So let me get this straight. You can either buy a 20K BMW that is state of the art and is actually worth the money you spend or you can buy something like a HD that using 30 year old technology and is worth less than half the money you will throw at it. You must be a HD owner.
You forgot all the bikes who are inbetween! I own a "86 Gpz 900r and it worth every cent. Do you really believe that todays bikes can last this long? BMW"s are good bikes but very overrated. You liked the sound of it? Try listen to a CBX 1050 or a z1300 Kawasaki!! Even a gold wing 1800 sounds better.
@espvintage I have owned a 86 Kawasaki 900 Ninja before. Although a good bike, after having a 03 BMW 1150RT, there is no comparison. The BMW is a much better bike.
@viggoM35 No not at all. You got me wrong. Your bike is using a kind of servo assistens with electric motors. If they fail the bike has almost no brakes. Thats the reason why I dont like them.
@espvintage Yes, they would not work sufficiently if the engine wasn't running first. But if the engine wasn't running before, then why would you need the brakes to stop? Kind of like a car. Did you ever try to drop when the engine stalled and you had no power assist? Very rare. But a small car weights 5x my RT. I've rolled it down my driveway using no power and it stopped fine. Sport riders prefer the non integrated brakes for twisties n track. But if an SUV cuts you off unexpected on the hwy?
@mnbme this is correct but not on your bike. if the servo assistence has a problem than you have almost no brakes. try it downhill with the ignition switch of and get the feel of it. This ABS system has been changed on later models because of the difficaulty of maintenance and and this "feature". sorry for my bad english
@espvintage Your information is incorrect and you don't even know what I ride. Both my beemers have ABS (1997 K1100LT and 2009 F800GS) and both work fine in the event of an ABS failure.
@espvintage I doubt anyone here is concern with correct grammer and spilling. If english isn't your native tongue, your doing a better job than I, AND ENGLISH IS THE ONLY LANGUAGE i KNOW!!!
I´ve did´n know why this motorcycle is called "devil´s face" and now seeing this video I recognize that face in front of this beautiful motorcycle. Did you see yet???
Wat een pracht motor. Ziet er indrukwekkend uit. De andere merken hebben alweer het nakijken. Gaat zeker de opvolgen van mijn sinds 1998 gebouwde K 1200 LT worden waarvan ik twee types met ongelooflijk veel plezier heb gereden de laatste 10 jaar. Gelukkig is deze een stuk lichter dan de 1200 zodat ik tot mijn tachtigste BMW trouw kan blijven. Lijkt mij ook een stuk sportiever. Praktische oplossing voor de GPS. Bravo BMW.
It looks heavy. I hope someone came up with a new tire compound just for this bike, or you're going to be buying new tires every 2,000 miles, especially the front.

Bike magazines are saying it is better than a Goldwing, it is the ultimate tourer which raises the bar.
No disrespect to a GPZ900 but this bike is in a different league.
I own a 1990 Kawasaki GTR1000 which I love, but it is no comparison to this.
As for HD well as they say, 95% of them are still on the road....the other 5% made it home.
No matter what your views we are all brothers here.
Keep riding safe

Tres detalles:
No me gusta el respaldo del top case (¡ningún acompañante se inclina con semejante ángulo!).
Da la sensación de perder mucha protección del viento con respecto a sus predecesoras (especialmente puños).

@espvintage BMW ABS brakes do not fail if the ABS system fails. You only lose the ABS. The brakes still work and a caution light flashes on the dash.
