BMW to Offer Test Rides on New Bagger at Buffalo Chip

The BMW K 1600 B “Bagger” will make its demo debut at the 2017 rally.

For the first time ever, BMW Motorrad USA is offering free demo rides on its soon-to-be-released K 1600 B "Bagger," and the company has chosen the Sturgis Buffalo Chip as the place to do it. Ten of the highly anticipated new bikes will be shipped to the Buffalo Chip for the exclusive demo ride opportunity, along with a full stable of new innovative BMW motorcycle models. BMW Motorrad representatives will be on hand at the Buffalo Chip's free-access CrossRoads to show off all of the new bikes and assist with demo rides Friday, Aug. 4 through Saturday, Aug. 11.

The K 1600 B features a new lower rear section with a significantly lower seat, a more elongated look and updated side bags. Its six-cylinder engine has serious muscle, pulling around 160 horsepower, and its high-tech options include reverse assist, hill start control, adaptive turning lights and more.
