Black engine protection bars for BMW R1300GS

The engine protection bar from Touratech is a uniquely designed and manufactured piece of equipment to provide the most complete and versatile protection ever available for boxer engines. It is meticulously designed with the specific needs of the boxer engine used in the BMW R 1300 GS in mind, which is known for its particular configuration with opposed cylinders and a layout that gives a favorable center of gravity, but is also characterized by a wide projection of its components.

The rugged construction with 4 independent attachment points forms a "cage" that completely surrounds the engine components. This provides effective protection for cylinders, valve covers and sensitive lambda sensors.

For the first time, the 25x2 mm stainless steel tubes are supported by 3 mm thick, 3D-molded stainless steel plates. These plates are perfectly matched to the R1300GS chassis in terms of technology and design. The 3D molded plates have a significantly higher load capacity and reduced weight, which improves protection.

The 3D molded plates of the engine protection bar from Touratech protect the particularly vulnerable front area of the valve cover and secure it at the front as well as at the sides. At the same time, it integrates perfectly into the new, flatter design language of the large "GS", making the engine protection bar a visual part of the motorcycle.

The forces generated in the event of a crash are safely absorbed, distributed and effectively deflected to suitable points in the structure, protecting the materials. Numerous pre-designed bending points prevent overloads and thus protect the chassis and engine.

The engine protection bar of Touratech is manufactured exclusively from high-quality electropolished stainless steel, which makes it highly resistant to corrosion. This material has been carefully selected to ensure the durability and longevity of the bar, even in wet conditions and exposure to the elements.

The characteristic of electropolished stainless steel is that it forms a protective layer on its surface that helps prevent the formation of rust and corrosion. This is essential for a piece of equipment that will be exposed to the elements while riding your motorcycle in a variety of weather conditions.

Even in the event that the engine protection bar suffers deep scratches due to rocks, gravel or other obstacles in the road, you don't have to worry about corrosion. The rust-resistant nature of stainless steel will allow the scratches to remain in good condition for a long time. In addition, if you want to keep the appearance of the bar at its best, scratches can be easily polished out with appropriate tools, restoring it to its original appearance and maintaining its structural integrity.

In summary, the choice of electropolished stainless steel to manufacture this engine protection bar not only ensures solid protection against corrosion, but also makes it easy to maintain and restore its appearance over time, making it a reliable investment for the protection of your motorcycle.

The distance between the protection bars and the motorcycle has been chosen to be as close as possible. There is no noticeable influence on ground clearance and tilt angle, but still enough space to work on the motorcycle.

Installation is quick and easy thanks to mounting points perfectly adapted to the motorcycle. All necessary mounting hardware is included in the package.
