Ilmberger Hand protector - right - carbon

Our hand protectors in carbon for the BMW S 1000 XR offer significantly greater protection from the cold and rainwater. A cleverly chosen design means the hand protectors don't appear significantly larger than the original part, however, and they integrate perfectly into the overall look of the S 1000 XR. The hand protectors are fitted using the brackets for the original BMW hand protectors.

The carbon hand protectors for the BMW S 1000 XR replace the original component using the original attachment points. Most prominent are the weight savings (as a rule, a saving of approx. 70% compared to the original component) and increased rigidity.

Ilmberger uses pre-impregnated carbon fibre matrices for the high-quality carbon. The fibre volume is dimensions and the alignment of the individual fibres is defined. The matrix is then laminated bubble-free by hand and coated twice with a protective layer. The added clear varnish layer protects and emphasises the three-dimensional effect of the carbon structure. After hardening in the autoclave, the carbon components satisfy even the highest demands and requirements.

This space age material unfolds its full potential with up to 70% weight decrease compared to the standard part and its weight-specific stiffness. Form follows function here and integrates optimally into the design of the motorcycle. The contours of the machine are incorporated as well as the material and surface texture of neighbouring series components. This carbon component underscores the high-tech claim of your BMW with the unique appeal of real carbon.
