2018 BMW K 1600
Grand America
Powered by the same 1600cc, 160 horsepower
flat-six engine and chassis platform as the K 1600
B, BMW has given the new Grand America various
bodywork changes like a taller screen and new side
cases with integrated lights, new exhaust mufflers,
and a new top case with a passenger backrest.
You'll still get BMW's Dynamic ESA, Reverse
Assist, Shift Assist Pro and the plethora of BMW
navigation and entertainment features with the Grand
America, although an interesting feature is this mod-
el is limited to 101 mph, which BMW says is based
on the principle of "The American Way of Riding."

2018
Kawasaki
H2 SX
It's been two years since Kawasa-
ki unveiled the supercharged Nin-
ja H2, which shocked the industry
with its fierce styling and ultra-high
horsepower claims. When we
managed to get our eyes off of its
flashy bits and think big picture,
we realized it wasn't just an exotic
model for the horsepower junk-
ies—it was Kawasaki's introduc-
tion to supercharged motorcycle
engines that would become more
available to the general public.
Behold, the 2018 Kawasaki H2
SX—a supercharged sport tourer
that has more intent than just top
speed runs.
