Wunderlich Extreme Engine Bars

Available in

Stainless Steel
Black

The engine bars are a result of over three decades of experience in manufacturing protection bars, resulting in the development of these stylish and effective engine protection bars that guarantee to deliver what they promise: safety, lightweight, durability, and low maintenance. The engine bars reliably protect the cylinders and valve covers and the two oxygen sensors. The all-round protection concept increases passive safety and riding experience. In case of a fall, the forces acting on the bars are optimally distributed to the load-bearing installation points, avoiding impact force peaks. The engine bars are made of 25-millimeter precision stainless steel tubing. The tube segments are formed on CNC tube bending machines and then cleanly welded. Visually, the guard integrates into the motorcycle's design and emphasizes its striking appearance. Our bars emphasize the protective function and product design. The bars are an eye-catcher and exquisitely refine your BMW. The stainless steel surface is glass bead blasted and electro-polished.

These things are perfect! The installation was easy, and the fitment and quality is as good as it can be. I bought these along with the matching tank bars and they seem like they’ll offer the perfect level of protection. All mounting points fit the bike perfectly, the finish is very high quality, and the welding joints are perfect. This is definitely worth the extra money. I also made an installation video here: https://youtu.be/0yNTa8c7dKQ

Product Great, Instructions Bad

Just like the tank bars, these are great, and they protected my bike during a fall and held up fantastic. But, the install instructions are TERRIBLE. The video didn't really help either as its so fast and too zoomed in. The worst part is that there is a T45 Torx bolt you need to install on the right of the bike, and a Torx driver will not fit because the bars block the fastener. I have no idea how you're supposed to get it tight. I ended up using a flat head screwdriver which just happened to match up with some of the T45 driver points, but I'm 100% sure its not to Torque spec, and per the documentation of the bars, now my warranty is not valid because the Torque spec was not met. So these $400 bars may as well come with no warranty. In the video, they show it from an angle that means you can't see the fastener. I had the same Torx adapter as the video, and there is 100% no way he was able to get the bolt tightened. To me, this is very misleading. I spent an hour trying to get that bolt in, wondering if I had the bars installed wrong, and starting from scratch a few times over. In the YouTube video it starts at time mark 3:00 I removed a star for the poor instructions, and another star for the YouTube video and the fastener. This IMO should have been a 13mm bolt instead of a T45 Torx, so I could use a wrench to tighten it

These are the best looking protection on the market, especially if you have the 40yr edition bike. The coverage is excellent and installation was easy 1 hour to install upper and lower. Directions are easy to follow and everything is included but the wrenches. Highly recommend

Bars arrived well protected and with all parts. Had viewed installation video twice before arrival. With the excellent included instructions, installing the bars was pretty easy although I did have to use a rubber mallet to fit the left side to kickstand bolt. Fit and finish are very good and I’m very satisfied with them.

As with the upper set of bars the lowers came well protected in padding to arrive safely although the box has a hole in it. The included hardware was complete and the instructions well documented. Install the left side was fairly simple but the right was more aggravating. Getting the bolts started and tightened properly was more difficult, especially The upper front bolt. My selection of tools may have been pat of the cause of that. Generally they look great and I'm satisfied. i just hope to not have to press them into service anytime soon.
