Tour riders: “A good Enduro should always have solid engine protection too
You can confidently dispose of the original plastic elements from BMW, now there are aluminium alternative from BMW and Wunderlich
Both fundamentally solid constructions that sufficiently protect the engine and the front manifold area
The BMW version fits a little higher on the front, while the Wunderlich version comes with an additional support frame that helps prevent the thread in the engine block being torn off in the event of heavy contact with the ground
Anyone wanting greater protection can also cover the manifold (Wunderlich manifold protection) and/or mount the centre stand protection plate (Wunderlich).”
We’ve now adapted our tried and tested Dakar engine protection for the R 1200 GS for the R nineT too
Protection that really protects the engine, manifold and collector.
The facts about the Wunderlich Dakar engine protection:
Extremely stable and angled in the front = cannot get caught
Extended to the rear to protect the collector
15 mm greater ground clearance
4 mm thick aluminium
No changes required to the vehicle
Easy fitting
Screws on to the original attachment points
Complete with screw set
5 year warranty
On the pistes of Agadir, Qatar, the Erzberg track as well as lots of other tracks and extreme tests, this engine protection had to prove itself through the toughest challenges
In addition to the win in stability and safety, the R nineT also now comes with a new, more impressive look.
