Just scored this on ebay :D . The 'ad' says, 'This was a very expensive accessory from BMW'. Does any body know anything about it/them?

It's all VFR (DCT) round here now. STILL missing my 1100s tho.

its a belly pan. I have the same one. I think its actually an offical BMW part too - as mine comes with BMW stamped mounts and brackets.

Did they include all the mounts and bits?

£69.00+p. No fittings but I thort that was a 'snip'. Bet they cost a lot more than that when BMW were floggin 'em. If they turn out to actualy BE CF (as advertised) I'll be well chuffed. It won't take me long to knock-up some brackets next winter when the bikes off the road. Has anybody got any pic's or drawings so I can get started?

I had one on my first 1100S - it was around £200 at the time (2000). Quite a nice item, and better than the bigger BCR-style ones in some ways as it helps to protect the front of the engine.

proper blue weave CF - made by BMW. Same stuff as they use on the tank panel, heel guards and front fairing - I believe it all came fitted as standard on the "light" model. That front bottom peice does get a bit melted by the headers though from my experience. But it does a good job of keeping them covered up so you only have to polish up the bits that are exposed.

That's interesting mate. Don't suppose you have any part numbers? :wink:

If your belly pan fits with the centre stand fitted to the bike the rear bracket drawing will not work because it
uses the mounting holes for the stand, I would also have a close look at the front to make sure it will work as
the brackets drawings are for a boxer type belly pan

Just my two pence worth.

After identifying (useing the RealOEM parts list) all the bits I needed to fit it to the bike I put a red cicle around everything in the diagram as they arrived:-

I ordered them up from Motorworks an they arrived 3 days later:-
