What BMW Motorrad owners should know

Motorsport tri-colour, Triple Black or Option 719. Coated to suit the finish your BMW actually has.

BMW Motorrad's Australian range covers the R 1300 GS and GS Adventure, the S 1000 XR, S 1000 R and S 1000 RR, the R 1300 R, RS and RT, the R 12 nineT, F 900 GS and K 1600. Most models come in several variants, such as Triple Black, GS Trophy, M Sport or Option 719, and each brings its own paint, trim and parts. We confirm what your bike is wearing before anything is touched. Book a time, bring it in to our Ashmore workshop, and we'll take it from there.

We protect every kind of BMW Motorrad:

Option 719 is more than a colour

Option 719 can mean a special paint like Aurelius Green Metallic, milled billet parts in anodised black or silver, or on the R 12 nineT, aluminium bodywork and an aluminium screen. Each of those is a different material, so each gets its own product, applied by hand, rather than one coating wiped over everything.

Brushed aluminium isn't paint

The R 12 nineT's tank is aluminium with exposed brushed-aluminium knee insets, and Option 719 adds more bare aluminium. Brushed metal has a grain, and polishing it flattens that grain into shiny patches. It's cleaned and protected by hand, along the grain, never machine polished.

Textured trim, carbon and milled parts

The S 1000 XR's radiator trim has a textured surface, and the Carbon and M Billet packs add carbon-fibre and milled alloy parts. Polish residue stains textured plastic and sits in carbon weave, so those parts are masked or worked by hand with a product that suits them.

The Motorsport tri-colour

The Light White, Racing Blue and Racing Red scheme on the S 1000 XR, S 1000 R and F 900 GS mixes a solid white with metallic colours on the same bodywork. White shows road grime first and the colour boundaries are tight, so each panel is refined only where it needs it and finished by hand up to every line.

What BMW Motorrad paint is really like

BMW's current colours are mostly metallics: Black Storm Metallic on the Triple Black and base models, Racing Blue Metallic on the GS Trophy, Gravity Blue Metallic on the S 1000 XR Sport, Aurelius Green Metallic on the R 1300 GS Option 719. The Motorsport tri-colour puts non-metallic Light White beside Racing Blue metallic and Racing Red. Then come the parts that aren't paint at all. The S 1000 XR has a textured radiator trim and optional carbon and milled M parts, Option 719 milled parts come anodised black or silver, and the R 12 nineT's aluminium tank has exposed brushed-aluminium knee insets above a chromed collector box.

Our answer: we prep your BMW Motorrad for what its paint actually needs, then lock it in with Fireball.

How the job runs

How We Prep Your BMW Motorrad Before It’s Coated

Preparation is the job. The coating is the last hour of it.

  1. 01Inspection under LED lighting, confirming the finish on every painted part: gloss, matte or satin.
  2. 02Hand wash panel by panel, with the wheels and lower engine degreased by hand.
  3. 03Chemical iron fallout removal, then a clay treatment on gloss paint only. Matte and satin are never clayed.
  4. 04Masking around exhausts, engine cases, the seat, rubbers and anything that runs hot.
  5. 05Gloss metallics, including Black Storm, Racing Blue, Gravity Blue and Aurelius Green, and solid Light White are checked under light and refined by hand or machine only where they need it. Any matte or satin part gets no machine work at all, and brushed aluminium is never polished.
  6. 06Option 719 and M milled parts, anodised components, brushed-aluminium tank insets and chrome cleaned and protected by hand. Carbon-fibre and textured trim each get a product suited to them.
  7. 07Panel wipe with a coating-safe solvent to strip oils and reveal the true finish.
  8. 08Fireball ceramic coating applied by hand, each surface with the product that suits it.
  9. 09Controlled cure, then a final inspection and your aftercare guide.

Questions BMW Motorrad Owners Ask

Can’t see yours? Call or text and you’ll get a straight answer.

What does it cost to coat my BMW Motorrad?

Every bike is different in size, finish and condition, so we price it from the details and photos you send. You get the price in writing before anything is booked.

Can you coat a matte bike?

Yes, with a coating made for matte and no correction stage. A machine never touches matte or satin paint, and a standard gloss coating isn’t used on it because it leaves a patchy sheen.

Will the coating protect the tank from fuel?

It helps a spill wipe off cleanly instead of etching the clear coat, but it isn’t immunity. Drips still want wiping straight away rather than at the next wash.

Do you do the frame, wheels and exhaust?

Painted and powder-coated parts and wheels, yes, each with the product that suits it. Exhausts and engine cases run hot, and some of those surfaces are better left uncoated than coated with the wrong thing.

Will it stop stone chips?

No. No coating stops a stone chip or a scratch. What it does is make the bike far easier to keep clean.

How long is the warranty?

There’s no set period for motorbikes. The coating is matched to your bike’s finish when we inspect it, and we’ll explain what to expect with your price.

How long will it be with you?

It depends on the bike and its finish. You’ll get a timeframe with your price.

Can you come to me?

No. Book a time and bring it in to our Ashmore workshop.

Do you take Afterpay?

Yes.
