Read complaints for BMW K1600B (2019)
2 issues1.when reaching speeds of 60+ bike shakes violently during high winds or behind trucks. Switching lanes is even more scary. To enhance this issue all you have to do is raise your wind screen fully and open up the air vents on the sides of the bike. For have your psi on tires at 40 or below.2. When in rain mode, when i accelerated pass the cap. The bike violented started to retard itself slowing the bike down but the engine making a vut vut vut vut sound while doing it. I had no throttle respond. When i make to a full stop and put the bike in neutral the engine was still making the same noise. The check engine light came out.i did a full cycle and and off the bike and the bike went to normal again.3. Rear speakers blow after long distance riding at high volume. This happen twice already.issue of #2 upload fault code shown by my gs-911there were more fault codes but i dont know how to upload more then one.
At high speeds the rear end of the motorcycle shakes and torques like a snake.it does not increase with wind. It almost feels like you lose control of the vehicle.
This motorcycle is unstable in any wind condition at highway speeds.it is severely buffeted sufficient enough to cause fear even in an experienced rider.i am fairly certain that, when this occurs, the bike is at the limits of the envelop of stability and expect it to wobble or weave into deadly oscillations.the dealers should warn people not to buy this machine.i have been riding for 50 years on all types of motorcycles and this is the most unstable i have ever ridden.bmw needs to be compelled to find the root cause of this condition and either remedy it in some way or replace it. The first time i entered an interstate in slightly windy conditions was the second day i owned it.i could only proceed to the first exit and could not remain at the 80 mph posted speed limit due to the buffeting and what seemed like hunting for stability. The bike is now parked in my garage with 300 miles on it.i bought a honda goldwing after operating it in 40 mph cross wind - something i wouldn't do with the bmw.the gw was steady as can be kin the same operation.do we have to wait until someone is killed before the nhtsa does something?we need engineering experts to evaluate this design and find out why a company like bmw is getting away with this.

At highway speeds, especially in traffic, the bike begins to wobble and becomes hard to control.i list an incident date of 04/29/2020 below, but this has happened many times since i bought it on 04/11/2020.
