BMW Motorrad Rider Equipment 2018.

New products at a glance. The whole life is an
adventure and on a motorcycle it feels that much more intense. This is
why the 2018 BMW Motorrad rider equipment range
contains special highlights that reflect the “Make Life
a Ride” philosophy down to the last detail. The new collection is
full of high-end, functional products to suit every climate zone and
all rider needs. The BMW Motorrad premium promise
applies to the entire 2018 rider equipment program: top-quality
material, a highly meticulous finish and safety based on cutting-edge technology.

One particular highlight of the 2018 BMW Motorrad rider
equipment range
is the homage to the legendary Paris-Dakar
winner Gaston Rahier. No more than 1,000 of the exclusive
VentureNeon jackets will be available, featuring
sleeves and shoulders in luminous orange as well as elaborate
embroidery elements. This is no doubt a precious collector’s item –
but far too attractive a garment to be kept shut away in the wardrobe:
after all, this superb replica has all the practical features an
enduro enthusiast could possibly want.

With the System 7 Carbon helmet, BMW Motorrad
presents a system helmet that can be converted into a jet helmet in no
time – without requiring the use of tools. It sets a whole new
benchmark in terms of safety, aerodynamics and versatility.

A vast range of potential use is offered by the
high-performance touring suit StreetGuard, whose
extensive features mean it can be worn in temperatures from freezing
to sweltering midsummer heat. The light Venting suit
is a cool candidate for summer riding – complete with a ventilation
concept that makes for unbeatable ride comfort. Enduro beginners can
look forward to the GS Dry suit, globetrotters will
love the Rallye premium suit and individualists will
opt for the Atlantis all-weather leather touring suit
– all the new BMW Motorrad suits feature a new look for the 2018
season, and there are a number of upgrades, too.

As far as the jackets and vests of the 2018 collection are
concerned, they offer top-level functionality and an excellent fit
during travel under the suit, as well as providing maximum benefits
and a great look when worn for any outdoor activity. With its compact
folding size, the Ride windbreaker is always a must,
the Ride fleece jacket is virtually unbeatable in
terms of versatility and the PCM Ride jacket is a
BMW Motorrad garment that features a high-tech
textile: Phase Change Material (“PCM”) enclosed in
microcapsules adapts permanently and smartly to the current
temperature. Once moistened, the Cool Down vest
creates a continuous cooling effect by means of evaporation.

Gloves and boots are of course vital to any rider equipment
collection. For touring riders, BMW Motorrad offers
the waterproof Allround gloves as a versatile basic,
while anyone looking for excellent off-road grip will be sure to opt
for the Rallye gloves. Meanwhile the GORE-TEX
technology X-TRAFIT makes the GS DRY enduro gloves
unique: they are both waterproof and breathable. While the
VentureGrip crossover leather boots combine
excellent properties for everything from touring to enduro riding, the
Ride sneakers are perfect for city tours –
laid-back leisure shoes that are full of ingenious safety features.

The 2018 Style Collection offers everything
that fans of the BMW Motorrad brand love – from
high-end leisure wear and trendy accessories through to ultra-cool
leather jackets. The collection features discreet BMW Motorrad
branding and comes in two kits, available from January to June 2018
and from July to December 2018. The leather items are available
throughout the whole year.

BMW Motorrad wishes all riders an exciting, eventful
and above all safe season in 2018.
