Product information "Touratech Crash Bar for BMW R1300GS"
The most comprehensive all-round protection ever for boxer engines!
The Touratech Engine Crash Bar is there where it is needed to prevent damage!
This also applies to the boxer engine of the BMW R 1300 GS with its favorable center of gravity but widely protruding cylinders.
The high-load construction with its 4 independent mounting points forms a "cage" and completely encloses the components. This creates the most effective protection for cylinders, valve covers, and the sensitive lambda sensors!
The 25x2 mm stainless steel pipes are for the first time supported by 3 mm thick, 3-dimensional formed stainless steel plates. These fit perfectly in both technology and design with the frame of the R1300GS. Because even there, the advantages of the formed plates with their significantly higher load capacity while maintaining low weight are utilized.
The 3D formed plates of the Touratech Engine Crash Bar wrap protectively around the particularly vulnerable front area of the valve cover and secure it forward and to the side. By the way, it fits perfectly into the new flatter design language of the large "GS" and visually makes the engine crash bar a part of the motorcycle.
The forces occurring in a fall or crash are safely absorbed, distributed and effectively redirected to suitable points of the construction and gently dissipated. Numerous predetermined bending points prevent overloads and thus protect the frame and engine.
Made exclusively from robust electropolished stainless steel, the crash bar is resistant to rust. Even deeper scratches lose their terror and can simply be sanded down.
The distance of the crash bars to the vehicle has been chosen to be as close-fitting as possible. There is no noticeable impact on ground or lean angle clearance, yet there remains enough space "to work".
Installation is simple and quick through perfectly matched mounting points for the motorcycle. Complete mounting material is, of course, included in the delivery.
In short:
- complete protection of the cylinders, also to the rear and above
- safe dissipation of occurring forces without damaging the frame and engine
- no restrictions on lean angle or ground clearance
- made from 25/2 mm stainless steel pipes and 3D formed components
- Made in Germany
TIP for perfect all-round protection: The ideal complement to the engine crash bar is our fairing crash bar for the BMW R 1300 GS (035-5161).
Also fits with "Option 719" / "Tramuntana".
