We've done it again! This time we tortured our crash bars for BMW's new flag ship motorcycle, the 1300GS model. As always we want to be fully transparent and show all the details of the crash bars drop test and also present the improvements for our production version crash bars.
Availabilty from mid July, 2024. More details: zaap.bio/bmw_1...

Those Boxer cylinder heads, especially the valve covers, are so vulnerable, glad to see this crash bar R&D. Looks sturdier than some others .Thanks

Looks like an awesome product, I can say with another brand setup aka black dog drops end up flexing the crash bar reinforcement system and punching holes in the valve covers. Hard problem to fully solve I’m sure but your system looks like the most robust for a gs trophy bike that is being dropped allot during training and competition. Jess Hofherr 1200 surely survived all the gs trophy and Sendit stuff thanks to your bars that is a fact. I’ll certainly go to your bars for my 1250 if I decide to compete again next year. Thanks for being totally open and transparent and constantly troubleshooting your own product.

Nice performance, the bars do their job perfectly! I also noticed that you mount the bars into the frame too, as well as integrate it to the engine protection plate. This might actually be the best crash bars and engine guards on the market! Too bad that I've already bought crash bars from another manufaturer... :(

@@potatissoppan thanks. It’s essentially the same design as our 1200GS and 1250GS/GSA lower crash bars and we carried this successful design over to the 1300GS model

@Outback Motortek, Other companies like Wunderlich have a bar in the middle (between the upperbars), for example the R1250GS. Might that prevent the bending? I am for sure now looking at your bars, great ad~

Well, when you started the engine, it sounded ☠‼ The bike with protection is, almost, as wide as a car ! - You can't filter in most of the worlds' traffic jams...., but the protection for this one, is extra important - due to the most ridiculous engine design..... IF you do more tests like this in the future ( on any bike ) - with many drops - start the bike after EACH DROP - so you / we ( if you publish it here ) know WHEN the damage appeared. If the engine gets killed after 3rd + drop - the protection is EXCELLENT. If on the first - well....

yep looks great in a “controlled” environment . Now try it with a leg and a boot there at those speeds you will see an entirely different outcome. Towing behind a vehicle is nice to see but highly impractical in the real world although i’m sure your product is of a decent quality .
