R&G Aero Crash Protectors for 2015-2019 BMW S1000XR

R&G Aero Crash Protectors | BMW S1000XR (2015-2019)

Protect your BMW S1000XR with R&G Aero Crash Protectors. Direct bolt-on, teardrop bobbins, no-cut fairing design, and de-embrittled steel bolts.

The R&G Aero Style Crash Protectors for the BMW S1000XR (2015-2019) deliver premium, adventure-sport frame and engine protection for both long-distance touring and spirited backroad riding. Built around R&G’s signature teardrop-shaped Aero bobbins, this kit offers superior impact resistance, clean aesthetics, and optimized drag properties over standard round frame sliders.

Specifically designed for the first-generation S1000XR chassis, this kit mounts directly to existing engine support points without requiring any drilling or trimming of your factory fairings. Utilizing bespoke steel inner sleeves and de-embrittled high-tensile steel bolts, the hardware is engineered to bend under severe impact rather than snapping, preventing damage to the engine casing or frame mounts.

Product Details:

Key Features:

1. Aerodynamic Teardrop Profile: Sleek, modern design that complements the aggressive styling of the S1000XR while spreading impact forces over a larger contact surface.
2. No-Cut Direct Fitment: Installs seamlessly utilizing OEM mounting locations—preserving original bodywork and factory finish.
3. De-Embrittled High-Tensile Steel Hardware: Engineered to absorb kinetic energy by bending during a crash rather than snapping or stripping engine threads.
4. Internal Compression Sleeves: High-strength steel inserts inside the nylon bobbins allow retaining bolts to be torqued to precise OEM specifications without backing out.
5. Concealed Hardware Caps: Removable end caps seal the bobbin core, keeping out road grime, rain, and debris for a long-lasting, clean appearance.
   

Key Benefits:

1. Preserves Resale Value: 100% reversible installation keeps your expensive factory fairings completely unmodified and scratch-free.
2. Essential Touring Insurance: Keeps the exposed 999cc engine cases, main frame, and tall bodywork lifted off the ground during stationary tip-overs or slide impacts.
3. Engine Mount Protection: Bending bolt technology dissipates shock loads gradually, safeguarding delicate aluminum mounting points on the inline-four block.
