BMW Motorrad presents Machined Parts. Fine quality customising parts for the R nineT family.


Munich.

Turning a motorbike into an unmistakably unique specimen is
something that particularly fuels the motorcycling passion of many
fans. This is precisely why BMW Motorrad has extended the design
program of its Original BMW Motorrad Accessories to include the
“Machined” range of customising parts for the models  R nineT, R
nine T Pure, R nineT Scrambler, R nine T Racer and R nine T Urban G/S.

Elaborately produced in high-quality aluminium, their
extravagant design is mainly intended to lend expression to an
individual passion for fine, premium-grade motorcycle technology.

The unique design was created in collaboration with Roland
Sands, the well-known customiser based in USA/California.

A special manufacturing technique ensures a surface quality with
attractive contrasts between glossy black and aluminium.

The parts are initially made from an aluminium forging blank
using a CNC-controlled machine tool, after they undergo elaborate
hand-polishing before application of a black coating.

Selected areas are then milled once more so that the original
distinctive aluminium surface becomes visible again.

All “Machined Parts” bear a BMW logo or a BMW Motorrad
inscription. The inscription “by Roland Sands Design” is also
applied to emphasise the designer’s signature style. In the colour
combination black-aluminium, the parts blend in particularly
organically with the vintage look of the models.

 

The following “Machined Parts” are now available from BMW
Motorrad dealerships:

  • Cylinder head covers Machined
  • Oil filler neck lid Machined
  • Belt cover Machined
  • Headlight cover Machined
  • Handlebar end cover Machined
  • Rear axle cover Machined
  • Bevel gear bearing cover Machined
  • Swinging-arm pivot mount cover Machined

 

Other “Machined Parts” products are in preparation.

 

In addition to the brand new “Machined Parts”, the Original BMW
Motorrad Accessories design program already offers a number of
fine-quality customising parts that allow the members of the R nineT
family to be adapted to individual taste in a sophisticated and
stylistically authentic manner.

Particularly worthy of mention here is the aluminium fuel tank
produced by hand in boutique manufacturing quality according to
rigorous BMW quality standards. Manual brushing gives each
individual tank an entirely unique surface structure which
permanently underscores the classic, refined appearance of the R
nineT,
R nine T Pure and the R nineT Scrambler.

Identical to the serial-production part in shape and volume, the
aluminium tank is available with seams that are either ground weld
or deliberately left visible, according to personal taste. In both
variants, a high-gloss varnish coating on the polished, visible
aluminium sections not only ensures a high-quality look but also
provides reliable protection from unwanted oxidation processes.
