Accessories by SW-MOTECH for the BMW S 1000 XR

The new S 1000 XR by BMW 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, BMW engineers made sure to eliminate the disadvantages of its predecessor: fewer vibrations and a toned-down exhaust make the S 1000 XR suitable for a longer trip combined with the fun of sporty motorcycling. Because, thanks to its new ergonomics featuring a narrower handlebar and knee hold as well as significantly more pronounced front fender, the new four-cylinder still has plenty to offer.

SW-MOTECH even offers extensive accessories for the first S 1000 XR model line. The Hessian manufacturer of premium accessories complements this offer with new products, specifically designed for the new S 1000 XR from 2019 onwards. Various luggage systems can be used with the sport touring motorcycle for both longer journeys or short weekend trips:

Luggage systems for the S 1000 XR

The lightweight and robust AERO ABS cases, each with 25 liters of storage, can be secured to the PRO side carrier in one single step. Once you've reached your destination, you can quickly remove the cases and the black, powder-coated steel carriers and enjoy a couple passes and curves without carrying that extra weight. Need more storage? Then simply take an URBAN ABS top case, which is also made of ABS plastic and matches the look of the two side cases and secure it to the tail. For this reason, SW-MOTECH offers the robust ADVENTURE-RACK.

To gain more storage space on the rear of the bike, you can also use the TRAX ADV and ION aluminum top cases – 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 model of the S 1000 XR, SW-MOTECH 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, SW-MOTECH offers the Blaze H saddlebags with up to 21 liters volume per bag. The advantage: if necessary, bag and carrier can be removed completely.

Being able to quickly reach travel essentials is very important to many travellers. The PRO Engage tank bag with its PRO tank ring is the right choice here: up to 10 liters of storage for valuables, gloves, a water bottle, spare battery, safety vest or a snack for when you take a break. Thanks to the new PRO tank ring with magnetic guide, the bag can be fastened easily and securely to the tank.

Protection and Safety

To protect the four-cylinder engine and fairing components, the black crash bar, made of robust 27mm thick steel, was built specifically for the S 1000 XR. For better visibility in bad weather, you can attach EVO fog lights using the corresponding crash bar clamps. Frame sliders and axle sliders for the bike's front and rear can provide additional protection. The abrasion-resistant sliders, made of fiberglass-reinforced plastic, absorb the impact of a crash and therefore prevent serious damage to the fork leg and left side of the swing arm.

During a long ride, the EVO footrest guarantees secure footing as it can be individually adapted to the ergonomic needs of the biker. And if you add a few matching mirror extensions along with a TRAVELLER RIDER cushion, there's nothing that can stop a relaxing trip on your sport touring motorcycle.

Products will be available in September.
