I’m a papaw so bubba J melted my heart and knowing he gets to ride on that awesome motorcycle with someone he loves and trusts. Ain’t nothing more important than a love like that.
Love the bike and especially your assistant!!! I have a 26 yr old daughter with downs.. I bought a 07 RK and after we rode the first time she yells I Love This Bike!!! Lol
That is too cool. Josh can’t get enough of our bike. He writes the days we ride on his calendar. This has got to be the best smoothest bike I have ever owned. Our channel is pretty much about Josh’s life and adventures
@@RaptorPackAdventures i put Legend Suspension on mine front and rear.. A world of difference in ride/handling.. Olyvia can only do short scoots.. she falls asleep!!! 😂
Hey thanks for the video and the beautiful scenery. You and Bubba J are awesome. Tell him I said so. The bike too. Lol. Take care. 2014 BMW k1600 Exclusive owner and new subscriber.
Thanks for the video. I have a 2018 Grand America. I ordered a bunch of accessories, including the Remus Quad exhaust and the illium works heel shifter.
@@RaptorPackAdventures Will do. Really excited about the Remus Quad exhaust. I have received half of the parts. Should have it all by next week, then will install.
@@RaptorPackAdventures I just traded in my 2020 R1250 GSA on a new-to-me 2020 K1600B that only had 5K miles. The previous owner had installed the Illium Works heel-toe shifter and I was unsure if I wanted to change it back to toe only but after riding about 1K miles with it there's no way I'd change it back. After a few days of riding and overcoming 50+ years of muscle memory riding with a toe shifter I find it incredibly useful. Thanks for the really good video.
I had a heel shifter on my Harley and loved it but after riding my BMW, I really don’t miss it. It does come in handy though. Thank you for watching our video
Wow! Very nice! Perfectly set up. Those are Forged Wheels too. They are not standard issue but a Option 719 extra and look absolutely wonderful compared with the painted cast wheels that are standard. The Illium bar risers look great. That guy fabricates quality goods. He has a YT channel. The windscreen looks fantastic. Can you store a full face helmet in that Nelson Riggs Weekender with no problem? The bike looks great! Ride safe and ride often. God bless you and your family in all ways. Peace
I’m real happy with how the bike looks and feels. Yes, the Weekender expands to fit Qatar full size helmet. I was scheduled to buy another bike but when I saw this one with the forged wheels, I had to buy it. Love the looks
@@RaptorPackAdventures Thank you. I agree. I checked out the Nelson Riggs link you provided. Sure enough it demonstrates a full coverage helmet being stowed. Nice. On long trips have you ever felt the need for a rider backrest?
Thanks for the video, Raptor Dan. I am about to purchase a 2019 K 1600 B with very low miles. Currently own a 2017 BMW RT and love it. Took a ride out to the northwest in August. It handles very well but not so comfortable for a 6000 miles trip. Anyway. I like the windshield choice but didn't catch the mnfg name?
The windshield is from 7 Jurrock www.7jurock.com/products/bmw-k-1600-b-2017-2018-replacement-windshield Glad you enjoyed the video and it’s a great bike
Hey Dan, getting ready to order the windshield from 7 Jurrock and a headlight guard. Wanted to know if it will help you or your channel, in case you get some benefit from them. I first heard of the company because of your channel. @@RaptorPackAdventures
This bike has been outstanding. I really haven’t experienced any issues like other owners of the bike. Oh, and it is currently for sale too. Trying a new bike from another manufacture
@@RaptorPackAdventures Appreciate the reply! If it’s not too personal, what manufacturer are you considering? I’m currently on a ‘14 Harley and I can’t really see myself making the purchase with what I feel are overly inflated prices. Personal perspective to be sure, but it’s enough for my wife and I to seriously consider other brands as we’ve never done in the past. So thanks for the video and the reply.
@@JoeFurtado-xv5no Not at all. It was very smooth and ride the beat at 80-85 mph. I’ve heard the same one with the tour pack was bad at high speeds. This is basically the GTL lowered, stretched bags and forward foot boards.
The cannons? 😆 That will be in the new year. I’ll look the Freedom Performance Slash out. I want to make sure the pipes look and perform superior on the bike

Gottem all on my 1600b too.....hope you and Bubba j are enjoying the miles!!!!!!

@@chaz3372 Not really. Just enjoy the windshield. You’ll love it
That's a wonderful Sport Tourer disguised as a Tourer. Love the damn thing.
Great video and thanks for putting all the links to the accessories. Did you install all of them or dealer?
I installed everything and if I can do it, anyone can
@@RaptorPackAdventures Thanks - I bought some of the accessories you mentioned and they were a breeze to install!
Beautiful bike! Hope to run into you with my k1600b
That would be great. When you find yourself in Southern Oregon, give us a shout. We’ll meet up with ya
How has reliability been? Any specific quirks/issues that you’ve discovered? Great vid by the way!

@@chasemurphyinc We’re actually looking at the 2023 Road Glide Limited or an Indian. Not sure yet but I sure loved this BMW. Strongest bike I’ve owned
@@RaptorPackAdventures I am legitimately looking at the Indian Pursuit. Good luck on the search and keep us posted!
Did you have any issues with the bike being unstable at highway speed I’m looking to buy a bmw looking at the k1600B or GTL
@@JoeFurtado-xv5no
Not at all. It was very smooth and ride the beat at 80-85 mph. I’ve heard the same one with the tour pack was bad at high speeds. This is basically the GTL lowered, stretched bags and forward foot boards.
Test riding one next week thanks for the info. FYI my backrest for my street glide cost $300 plus
@@JoeFurtado-xv5no
Good luck. I think you’ll love it
Get rid of the stock mufflers! I installed the Freedom Performance slash cut mufflers on mine. Now my K1600B sounds as good as she looks and performs.
The cannons? 😆 That will be in the new year. I’ll look the Freedom Performance Slash out. I want to make sure the pipes look and perform superior on the bike
I’ll visit you Josh on cooking with Bubba J!
Were did you get backrest?
This is from Wunderlich. It is a bit expensive but in my opinion it’s the best looking. www.wunderlichamerica.com/seats.html
I bet the stereo on the Harley was the only thing better than the K1600. Lol
That was about it. The stereo on these bikes is garbage IMO
Wow
Kind of made it into a GT
