SW-MOTECH S 1000 XR accessories
German accessory specialist SW-MOTECH says that the new BMW S 1000 XR "is the perfect motorcycle for those who want to ride a sporty bike without having to forego comfort and long-distance capability. Equipped with the same engine as the Double R, the remake of the XR offers the full range of options for sporty motorcycle riding".
"In the process of updating the XR BMW, engineers have dealt with some of the issues of the model's first iteration such as reducing the vibrations and toning down the exhaust to make the S 1000 XR more suitable for a longer trip while still combining the fun feel of sporty motorcycling. Thanks to its new ergonomics - a narrower handlebar and knee hold as well as significantly more pronounced front fender - the new four-cylinder still has plenty to offer."
And so does SW-MOTECH! The company still offers an extensive range of accessories for the first S 1000 XR model line, but has now augmented those with additional premium accessories specifically designed for the new S 1000 XR platform from 2019 onwards.
Luggage systems for the S 1000 XR include their lightweight and robust AERO ABS cases, each with 25 litres of storage, secured to the removable, black powder-coated steel PRO side carrier in one single step. For more storage, the URBAN ABS top case matches the look of the two side cases and secures to the tail with their robust ADVENTURE-RACK.
To gain more storage space at the rear of the bike, SW-MOTECH TRAX ADV and ION aluminium top cases are described as "ideal for those who want to give this quite sporty bike a bit of an adventurous touch".
"The tail also allows for small and compact luggage solutions. For the new version of the S 1000 XR we have developed a matching SLC carrier that can hold URBAN ABS side cases or small SysBags 10 and 15 - made of durable ballistic nylon. For those who would like it even more compact and sporty, we have Blaze H saddlebags with up to 21 litres of volume per bag - the advantage being that if necessary, bag and carrier can be removed completely".
The PRO Engage tank bag with its PRO tank ring offers up to 10 litres of storage for valuables, gloves, a water bottle, spare battery, safety vest or snack - the new PRO tank ring with magnetic guide ensures easy and secure fixing to the tank.
For protection of the four-cylinder engine and fairing components, a black crash bar, made of robust 27 mm thick steel, was built specifically for the S 1000 XR. For better visibility in bad weather, the SW-MOTECH EVO fog lights use the corresponding crash bar clamps. Frame sliders and axle sliders for the bike's front and rear can provide additional protection - abrasion-resistant, they are made of fiberglass-reinforced plastic and absorb the impact of a crash, protecting the fork leg and left side of the swingarm.
EVO footrests offer secure footing and can be individually adapted to the ergonomic needs of the rider, and matching mirror extensions to the TRAVELLER RIDER seat add extra comfort.
