Ok, maybe its me. I have a K1600GTL loaner whilst my RT is being serviced and I just don't see why people rave about it. OK, its a nice bike and all that, but there are a number of things which to me are no good, such as a clunk through the clutch lever every time you change gear and when rolling on or off the throttle there is a clunk through the bike from the transmission. Other things such as poor weather protection compared to an RT, even though the screen is the size of a barn door. Oh, and the most serious problem (to a tightwad Yorkshire man) BOY, does it drink petrol !
On the good side, even a shorty like me can get both feet down, and its a nice smooth engine.
