Not familiar with UK dealers, interested to hear where can I get a good deal for K 1600 in the South East or thereabouts. Guess its the same question as asking how long's a piece of string......
Ridiculous putting a 1600cc 6cy engine in a motor Bike ....... just barmy
What's the maximum size engine they should put in a motor bike ?

I got a good deal a couple of weeks ago for a K1600 GT Sport with all the bells and whistles from Cannon in Braintree, Essex. Man to speak to is Adam Paris. I think make sure you know what you want to pay (be real), I couldn't get first service off him, but I did get an extra £100 off the deal we had agreed. I was happy. Maybe I could have pushed for more off but I was pleased with the deal. In total I got close to £700 off the list price. There was a bike in the show room which was dearer than ordering a new build bike. Arrives end Sept.
+1 for Cannons great team and you will get a deal from Adam they will look after you.I got a good deal a couple of weeks ago for a K1600 GT Sport with all the bells and whistles from Cannon in Braintree, Essex.

car engines are getting smaller, lighter and more powerful
maximum size should be restricted to 800cc to force manufacturers to build more efficient, (but equally as powerful) Bike engines
after a few years it should then be reduced to 500cc
if you look at the bhp (per tonne) that smaller engines pump out there is no need for bigger engines, especially on a motor Bike ....... totally stupid and just a ego stroker ... they do "nobody any good" ....... totally idiotic, primitive even
You'll not be getting a 1600 then?
What spec did you buy? Having seen your KTM shopping list I'm very interested to know what the must have mods are.
I once had a K1 ... far too fast for me ....... sold it after a year
Motorrad Dundee gave me one as a courtesy bike yesterday.
I have always dismissed them as a "bit of a barge".

I had a whale of a day on it. So easy to ride. So much torque the gears can be irrelevant at times! The engine is very quiet but the exhaust note is like being followed by a bevvy of sport bikes. I loved it........ but my GS is staying
