Complete lack of BMW branded pirate gear! How can I ride without BMW branded underwear, socks, leather assless chaps, do rag, boots (oops, they do have boots), etc.....

umm think you missed that they have BMW socks and underwear online in Europe BMW Motorrad Summer Functional Clothing
But for now, I'll have to keep using my Harley assless chaps (oops maybe I shouldn't have admitted to that, still maybe they'll bring those out for the R18 riders )

Have to manually open the wings to cool off the rider on warm days. Even though no other bike even has such a thing, I should still be able to just push a button to open.

And how TF is such an expensive bike missing AC seat??? 🤷‍♂️

7. The 120° crankshaft doesn't vibrate the chassis thus leaving my female/identifies as female passenger unfulfilled.

Until later.

Not to mention your own prostate.

Excessive horsepower causes higher speeds and performance awards from law enforcement.

The old K1200S I own has earned me the only such awards of any bike I've ever owned. Maybe that's why it's so hard for me to go through with the plan to sell her.

Reverse...? What am I paying for? Who would ever want to go backwards...😏

Unless your stunting and we all know that is not possible with such a large bike.

No AC seat that sucks, mine is heated, or possibly it's all the sausage and hot food I eat. still trying to figure it out.

My GTL-E is a PoS because it pisses off all the Mustang GTs who try to outrun it.

And, @ncudmore, not for nothin', but aren't ALL chaps "assless"? I mean, if they're not, then they're just pants, right?

Cheers!

P.S. I didn't mention the stock seat, which really does suck. LOL

 

[Adventureboy]

If it doesn't start to leak oil very soon I'm taking it back to the dealer...

 

[Gixxerific]

Another thing i hate is how smooth it is. I thought the Germans were engendering masters They couldn’t even engineer massive vibration.

 

[Trex]

Way too dependable !

Complete and utter failure on the part of BMW navigation programmers not to include sidewalks in the current Navigator VI.

How can a responsible individual such as myself, do my civic duty and obey the judge when he told me he didn't want to see me on the roads ever again? Nav 6 programmers, pack your bags, report to the luftengraffen (lawn dart) division of BMW Motorrad, feel the shame.

I'm sort of low key and quite humble so i'm always uncomfortable around other riders being on the Best motorcycle ever.

 

[spez3012]

I am disgusted that after spending so much money on such a motorcycle that is intended for touring and covering high mileages only to discover that it DOES NOT come with a trouser press in EITHER of the side panniers.

 

[ddawg]

For me it's just the basics. Who the h-e-double toothpick wants:

• an orchestra while winding out to redline all the while on the cusp of front-end liftoff.
• gas station stops to fill the bike so often because of the crappy 40+ mpg with only a 7-gallon tank. (Come on, my GMC pickup has 21+ gallon tank.)
• the grace rolling on asphalt ribbons through mountainous terrain like powder day skiing at your favorite rocky mountain slope.
• having to google "chicken strips" comments from complete strangers about the rear tire on the bike at a Walmart parking lot. (I thought I rolled through something on the ground at Wendy's.)

I raced a Big Bad Mustang 5.0 GT supercharged blah blah blah... I stayed ahead of him but it maxed out at 143, what a piece of garbage.

Slow poke!

Something is wrong with both my B and my GS.

Neither will stop at bars, or even Starbucks. I try but they just keep going. Mind of their own.

Most important, coffee machine is not included as standard. Ability to prepare beans should also be offered as extra OEM accessory.

I am convinced there is a conspiracy between American (HD, Indian) and Japanese (Goldwing) companies to prevent people from buying K’1600s specially GTL’s.
Let’s face the facts.
It is common knowledge that basic American technology as recycling human excretions (urine, poops, vomit etc) are broadly used in Star Trek (Enterprise, Voyager, and other spacecrafts) to supply food to the crew by verbally driven machines (fact).
In addition we all now that the personal care of these spacecraft crews includes hypersonic showers (second fact). Finally we all know that K1660s have been characterized as cruisping motorcycles (third fact).
What does this mean ? Simply that the rider of these respective machines are usually commuting in deserts or remote mountain roads. (fourth fact).
Now the conspiracy.…
Certain employees of the above companies periodically hold meetings through the DEEP DARK WEB to do several VOODOO things to German designers making them unable to have basic design thoughts. This has the result not to include hypersonic baths and food and drink apparatus to K1600 motorcycles (Basic apparatus in Star Trek).
The consequences are….
that K1600 commuters become thirsty, hungry and stinky during long trips. Therefore when they stop somewhere for their needs, other people smells them and watch how much exhausted are and the reasonable decision is
‘Whaooo!!! look at there poor miserable people what their bike can do to them. STAY AWAY FROM K1600 BIKES).
