BMW K 1600 GTL vs Indian Chieftain Dark Horse Comparison

The BMW K 1600 GTL is a perfecetly balanced, if big, touring machine with an incredibly smooth inline six-cylinder engine. The K 1600 GTL has everything going for it, solid road presence, comfortable ergonomics and ride, a brilliant engine and solid brakes. The only downside is the price and the lack of some new-age electronics and features.

The Indian Chieftain Dark Horse is a highly capable, comfortable and entertaining big cruiser which nails the cruiser look to a T. It's a comfortable bagger to cover long distances on straight roads, with possibly a sweeping curve or few. The only downisdes are the heat from the engine, particularly in the Indian summer, the weight and the price.
