Part # 18100002
Wunderlich Engine Bars - Black

The first bar made of 32 mm tube! We decided on this tube dimension for two reasons: for strength reasons, in order to optimally protect the R 18, and for aesthetic reasons. Because only the 32 mm tube looks balanced and aesthetic on the imposing R 18 - and in the surroundings of the mighty manifold tubes. In addition, we deliberately decided on a closed, one-piece shape for the protective bar, which, apart from its dimensions, contributes additional constructive rigidity. In this way, the high-quality protection bar blends discreetly into the overall style of the R 18 and yet sets a coordinated accent of its own. It is no coincidence that the spade-shaped design is reminiscent of the guards on the classic air-cooled BMW boxers.

The engine protection bar is solidly supported at six selected points. The lower braces, which are hinged to the frame beams, have been discreetly positioned by our designers so that they do not catch the eye and do not interfere with the overall line. The multi-point mounting ensures that the forces introduced in the event of a fall or fall-over do not occur and act at a single point, but are absorbed via the protective bar over all 6 mounting points. The punctual stress due to force or moment peaks is thus significantly reduced.
