Blackened Bagger Motorcycles

The BMW K1600 B is Designed to Make the Longest Trips Comfortable

— October 11, 2016 — Autos
German automaker BMW may be associated with four-wheeled vehicles first and foremost by most people, but the company has a long tradition of creating exceptionally high-quality motorcycles, and this continues to be the case with the release of a brand new bagger motorcycle dubbed the K1600 B.

The bagger motorcycle format is popular among bikers looking to embark on long trips, which is why this bike is designed with comfort in mind. The BMW K1600 B comes equipped with a low-cut windscreen, lowered passenger seat and a handy reverse assist function which makes it easier to move the heavy motorbike into tight parking spots.

Set to be made available on the market in 2017, this bagger motorcycle is an excellent option for people looking for a comfortable and secure motorbike for long road trips and adventures.
Trend Themes
1. Comfortable Bagger Motorcycles - The creation of comfortable bagger motorcycles that cater to serious bikers embarking on long trips presents an opportunity to improve the biking experience, and create more long-lasting loyal customers.
2. Reverse Assist Functionality - The development of more motorcycles with reverse assist functionality built into their design presents a chance to innovate and make it easier for bikers to park and navigate their bikes more simply.
3. Low-cut Windshields - Manufacturing and prototyping windshields in unique designs could differentiate bike brands and attract consumers, while making their ride more safe, secure, and enjoyable
Industry Implications
1. Motorcycle Manufacturing - Companies that manufacture motorcycles stand to gain by focusing on producing new models and incorporating new features that cater to serious bikers who take long trips, making their products more appealing.
2. Automotive Accessories Production - A focus on developing automotive accessories that cater to bikers on long trips such as low-cut windshields that increase visibility can appeal to consumers and foster customer loyalty.
3. Biker Services and Maintenance - Services and maintenance businesses have an opportunity to offer specialized and focused treatment and services to the new generation of consumers taking part in long-distance biking trips.
