The Wunderlich accessories and after parts specialist for BMW models produced this S1000RR Piranha edition and took it along to the 2010 Intermot show.
This is about as mean as the BMW superbike could get – ripping off some of the fairing we get a nasty-looking naked bike that could even compete with the Aprilia Tuono.
It’s not exactly in BMW S1000RR style but then perhaps it’s not a bad thing to see some experimentation every so often.
Besides, this is not the standard offering in the line-up but an extra take that allows customers to let their imagination go wild (literally).
The S1000RR Piranha features asymmetrical fairing and just a tiny amount of covering across the airbox and tank which supports the front headlight.
The instrumentation is mostly on display and a new gold steering base supports the handle bars.
Beyond the detail, the overall effect is pastiche – with bits and pieces featuring racing components and even carbon fibre.
The exhaust is a different shape, there are MotoMaster wave brakes which is the only modification to the braking system, and there are also PVM six-spoke alloy wheels.
You can either hand over your bike to the guys at Wunderlich or buy the kit.
