ULTIMATE tank guards are uncompromisingly engineered for protection in adventure riding

Seasoned world-touring adventure riders know the score: there are days when your bike drops more than once, simply due to the kind of terrain you’ll never see in civilised Europe with its expansive road network. Or because the sheer physical strain, extreme heat or cold leaves you too fatigued to keep the bike upright. Out there, away from civilisation, it’s all the more vital to rely on gear that can take a beating and endure – because staying mobile, independent and on the move can literally be life-saving by reducing risk to an absolute minimum.

Definitely made for adventure riding. Made in Germany.

This Wunderlich ULTIMATE tank guard is specially designed for adventure riding and reliably protects the tank, fairing, front end, and the highly vulnerable water cooling units. In combination with the Wunderlich rollover guard, it forms a sophisticated all-round protection concept for enhanced passive safety: in the event of a fall or tip-over, the acting forces are optimally distributed across reinforced mounting points via the guard structure, thus minimising peak loads. Visually, the guard integrates seamlessly with the design of the Adventure and accentuates its distinctive character. The tank guard is constructed from a composite of 25 mm precision steel tubing. The segments are formed on CNC tube bending machines and then cleanly welded.

The ULTIMATE extension bars fit perfectly and work in tandem with the tank guard to enhance passive safety.
Our extension bars, made of 25 mm precision steel tubing, support, reinforce, and perfect the protective effect of the ULTIMATE tank guard.
