BMW S 1000 RR Racing for the racetrack

Project bike from Ilmberger Carbon and Alpha Racing

That’s what comes out when Ilmberger Carbon and Alpha Racing work together on a 2019 BMW S 1000 RR – a project bike, refined and optimized for use on the racetrack.

There is always room for improvement. In this way, high-performance sports motorcycles can also be further optimized for the racetrack. And for that you have I.lmberger Carbon and Alpha Racing teamed up, buttoned up a BMW S 1000 RR and swapped all parts for components from their own shelves.

Technology from the WorldSBK

Alpha Racing takes care of the water and oil cooling. The hand-welded aluminum cooler weighs 4.3 kilograms and is worth 2,990 euros. Among other things, it is installed in BMW motorcycles that compete in the WorldSBK and the World Endurance Championship. Alpha Racing also contributes the multi-adjustable footrest system, which can only be used on the racetrack; it can be used with and without reverse gear (649 euros). In addition, there are the thumb brakes and the brake discs from the Alpha Racing parts shelf, which are priced between 155 and 464.10 euros. On the software side, the BMW M Race Calibration Kit from Alpha Racing is used (5,890 euros).

Ilmberger Carbon is dedicated to the aerodynamically optimized racing fairing. The range includes, for example, an air inlet duct (169.90 euros), the alternator cover (179.90 euros), a front spoiler that also serves as an underrun protection (599.90 euros), a clutch cover (199.90 euros), the tank cover (379.00 euros) 90 euros), cover for the swing arm (left and right 199.90 euros each) and a cladding set of four parts for the front and side panels and the front spoiler (1,899.89 euros). These and more components are also available separately.

70 percent lighter parts

All around, the carbon parts should each be 70 percent lighter than the original. In addition, the parts have a clear plastic coating that is supposed to protect the carbon fibers from scratches and UV rays.

But that was still not it for the BMW S 1000 RR Racing. OZ Motorbike is contributing the forged rims, the strut and fork conversion come from Ohlins and the rear silencer from GPR.
