' Avant ' fender extension for R 1300 GS
British BMW aftermarket parts and accessory specialist Nippy Normans ( Norman Birtles ) is offering this new ' Avant ' fender extender design for the R 1300 GS . Described as an easy , no-drill , three-minute clip-on install , it adds 15.6 cm to the length and 3.15 cm to the width of the stock fender - though wider , it looks slim . Nippy Normans is the exclusive European distributor for USA designed MachineartMoto products , which includes the ' Avant ' mudguard extenders , ' MudSling ' rear huggers and ' X-Head ' cylinder head protectors - all for the BMW Boxer range of motorcycles . The added length of the ' Avant ' GS-1300 extender " effectively reduces mud , water , tar and stone splash back onto the engine , pipes and surrounding components . This makes bike cleaning faster and reduces damage to critical components ". The ' Avant '
is designed with sufficient clearance to fit with both the standard and large BMW accessory sump guards . In addition to the ease of installation " it integrates beautifully with the styling of the R 1300 GS . It can be transferred to another bike without leaving disfiguring holes behind , a benefit for resale value ". The ' Avant ' GS-1300 fits over the top of the stock GS fender and engages the trailing end with a unique moulded-in saddle . " Two stainless steel compression clamps grip the underside of the stock fender on the sides , drawn tight with T25 Torx head screws . Injection-moulded in resilient polypropylene with a surface texture that matches the GS mudguard , the characteristic flared wing shape widens the splash coverage area without looking wide ".
Slovenian motorcycle carbon fibre wheels specialist Rotobox has extended its carbon fibre wheel product assortment by unveiling Rotobox Bullet PRO - " a new generation of motorcycle wheels engineered specifically for more demanding users ". Using high-strength continuous unidirectional carbon fibres to form the spokes ( rather than orthodox chopped fibres ), Rotobox Bullet PRO are an advanced JWL certified upgrade for performance motorcycles . The unidirectional fibre alignment results in higher levels of stiffness and higher for higher load ratings . They are finished with a satin coating for UV protection , have black hubs and gold valves . Pre-orders are available from early October 2024 , for deliveries commencing in December . Orders placed before the end of EICMA will receive a free-of-charge ceramic bearings upgrade . This new Rotobox wheel can be seen on Spanish manufacturer Puig ' s booth at EICMA in November 2024 , in Hall 11 , booth M40 .
