Shortly after BMW released the 1M, it debuted the 1M SafetyCar for the MotoGP series. Besides a unique paintscheme and some CF addons, the car was also lowered a good amount and sporting KW stickers. The writing was on the wall and we all knew that it was only a matter of time before a coilover kit was released for the 1M.
The coilovers are a
Variant 3 system of KW's kit, which means that the coilovers are both rebound (infinitely) and compression (14) adjustable along with height adjustable. Lowering ranges from
10-35 millimetres at the front and
5-25 millimetres at the rear axle.
KW claims that the new system will not only improve the cornering (especially at high speed) and aesthetics, but the comfort levels as well. They say that at low speed, the impact of transverse joints are no longer transferred directly into the passenger cabin.
The KW V3 coilovers are TUV approved and
now available for 1879 Euro including VAT, no word yet on US availability.
