Motorcycle fans are in for a treat with the return of the Carole Nash Irish Motorcycle and Scooter Show at the RDS.

Many of the best motorcycles in the world will be on show, with BMW among those leading the pack. In fact, BMW Motorrad will be unveiling the incredible new K1600 GT tourer to the Irish public at the show which runs from March 4 to 6.

Featuring the most compact in-line six-cylinder motorcycle engine in production, the 160bhp machine offers a never-before-seen blend of performance, comfort and technology. Steve Pitt, BMW Motorrad Market Area Manager for Ireland, said: ' The K1600 GT is a fantastic addition to our award-winning range of motorcycles.

This genre-defining luxury touring motorcycle features BMW's stunning new 1600cc in-line six-cylinder engine integrated with lightweight materials and cutting-edge technology previously only found in super-sport machines.

I am excited that we will be introducing the K1600 GT to all those who visit the show this year.' Another world-first for motorcycles from BMW Motorrad is the Adaptive Headlight. Available as an optional extra, the Adaptive? BMW's new K1600 GT tourer which will be on show at the RDS.

Headlight uses lean angle and speed data from the motorcycles to aim the light beam around the corner when the motorcycle is in motion, constantly providing the best possible vision when riding in the dark.

Steve Pitt added: ' The K 1600 GT personifies the term 'gran turismo'. There is truly nothing else with the K 1600 GT's blend of smooth, driving six-cylinder power, agile chassis and all-day comfort. 'It isn't class leading - it's class defining. The GT is the new benchmark for dynamic, cross-continent touring'.
