BMW R65 R80 R100 Footrest Relocation and Comfort Kit
The Sport-Evolution footrest relocation and comfort kit for BMW R65, R80, and R100 significantly improves the ergonomics and riding comfort of classic BMW 2-valve models. The original footrests on these models are positioned comparatively far forward and are also arranged asymmetrically. This results in an unusual seating position, while at the same time the space between the carburetor and the footrest is very limited.
Drivers with larger shoe sizes, in particular, are familiar with the problem: when shifting or braking, their feet often hit the carburetor float chambers. This not only impairs comfort but can also make it difficult to operate the gearshift and brake.
With the Sport-Evolution footrest kit, the footrests are relocated to an ergonomically optimized position. The brake side is moved back by 65 mm, and the gearshift side by as much as 105 mm. In addition, both footrests are lowered by 10 mm. This results in a much more natural seating posture with a more relaxed knee angle and more freedom of movement for the feet.
In addition to increased riding comfort, the new positioning of the footrests provides a more harmonious riding experience and better vehicle control. Especially on longer tours, the ergonomic optimization is clearly noticeable. The footrests are at the same height and offer a balanced riding experience that has a positive effect both in everyday use and on longer journeys.
The Sport-Evolution footrest relocation and comfort kit is the ideal solution for riders of a BMW R65, R80, or R100 who want to improve their seating position and noticeably increase the comfort of their BMW Boxer. A simple measure with a big impact for more riding pleasure on every kilometer.
