Red Dragon
A fiery look

The sporty single seat bench in black is a shortened seat with a rear end trim suitable for installing a compatible luggage rack. The seat surface, made from quality artificial leather with grey contrast seams, is perfectly coordinated to match the design of the vehicle. The perfect choice for all riders who enjoy riding solo.
The black luggage rack is the ideal choice for solo riders who want to carry more luggage instead of a passenger. The rack allows you to load smaller items of luggage, weighing up to 10 kg, and can only be installed in conjunction with the single seat bench for a luggage rack.
Stay stylish and tidy on the road: The Filler Panel in Blackstorm metallic conceals the gap between the case and the mudguard, giving the rear of the bike a particularly tidy appearance. The trim is made of plastic, and is painted in Blackstorm metallic as standard.
With its matt black and glossy black colour scheme, the 2-tone black cylinder head cover trim strip creates an attractive design accent. The strip, made of high-gloss, chrome-plated aluminium, is easy to install on the standard cover. The subtle machining, including a BMW logo, complete the exclusive look.
The Machined trim strip for the engine housing cover creates an appealing design accent. The strip, made of black and natural-coloured anodised aluminium, is easy to install on the standard cover. The subtle machining and the BMW logo adopted from the standard part round out the exclusive look.
The 2-tone black mirrors create striking design accents in matt black and glossy black. The housing is made of anodised aluminium, and the machined aesthetic emphasises the exclusive look. The mirrors can be adjusted individually to provide an optimal field of view.
