With preventive rollover protection
The Wunderlich ULTIMATE tank protection bar – perfect, maximum protection for the tank and the tank side fairing of the BMW R 1300 GS Adventure

Function and product features

• Wunderlich ULTIMATE tank protection bars are uncompromisingly designed for their protective performance in adventure riding
• They offer maximum protection for the exposed water coolers, the tank side fairing, the front section with auxiliary headlights and, to a certain extent, the tank side bags
• The two distinctive, laterally projecting tube segments serve to prevent rollovers
• The cleverly integrated RackBase is a visual highlight and simultaneously acts as the upper mount of the front tank protection bar and the rear reinforcement strut – it also serves as a shelf or compact rack equipped with lashing openings
• The structural design ensures that forces and moments acting from the outside are evenly distributed to the appropriate mounting points on the right and left to reduce load and torque peaks
• An additional bracket is integrated into the tank side fairing
• Thanks to the rigid tube structure and the use of selected materials, the ULTIMATE tank protection bar provides maximum protection
• The well-thought-out all-round protection concept helps to optimise passive safety
• Compatible in combination with
  • the original engine protection bars and
  • the Wunderlich engine protection bars ULTIMATE and ULTIMATE PRO
  • the original cylinder head protection
• Perfect, integrated, model-specific design – the routing of the bar is precisely matched to the contour of the front section
• Perfect fit
• Easy Plug & Play installation: straightforward mounting at existing attachment points, including detailed installation instructions

ULTIMATE tank protection bars are uncompromisingly designed for maximum protective performance in adventure riding and ensure increased passive safety both on- and off-road

World‑travelling adventure riders know this well: there are days when a motorcycle may fall over more than once because conditions are far tougher than what we can imagine in cultivated and civilised Europe with its developed road network. Or because sheer physical exhaustion, heat or cold, can simply sap all strength and endurance needed to keep the bike upright. Beyond civilisation, it becomes even more critical to rely on trustworthy equipment that can withstand the material stress involved without failing – because remaining mobile, moving forward and staying independent can be vital for reducing personal risk to a minimum.

Definitely made for adventure riding. Made in Germany.
ULTIMATE – when it really matters.

This Wunderlich ULTIMATE tank protection bar is specially designed for adventure riding and reliably protects not only the tank but also the fairing, front section and highly exposed water‑cooler units. Together with the Wunderlich rollover protection system, it forms a well‑thought‑out all‑round protection concept for passive safety: in the event of a fall or tip‑over, the acting forces are optimally distributed via the bar structure to the robust mounting points, reducing force and torque peaks. Visually, the protection bar blends perfectly with the design of the Adventure model and emphasises its distinctive appearance. The tank protection bar is made from 25‑millimetre precision steel tubing. The tube segments are formed on CNC tube‑bending machines and then cleanly welded.

With our ULTIMATE protection bars, maximum protective performance and product design are at the forefront. The tank protection bar protects and enhances your BMW in a high‑quality way.
