RPM Carbon Tail Fairings Cowls for S1000RR-S1000R (2015-2019)

The RPM Carbon Tail Fairings Cowls for the BMW S1000RR and S1000R (2015-2019) are a high-end aftermarket upgrade. Riders who want to improve their motorcycle’s aesthetics and reduce its weight often choose them. These fairings replace the stock plastic components with lightweight, strong carbon fiber. This gives the bike a premium, race-ready look and enhances its performance.

Manufacturers use pre-impregnated carbon fiber sheets, also known as “pre-preg.” They cure these sheets in a pressurized autoclave. This process forces out excess resin, creating a product with minimal voids. The result is a lighter, stronger, and more uniform part compared to “wet” carbon methods, where a resin is manually applied. Manufacturers then finish the fairings with a durable clear coat, which can be either glossy or matte. The clear coat also offers essential UV protection, which prevents the carbon fiber from fading or yellowing over time.

They precisely mold the fairings to match the bike’s original contours. This ensures a seamless fit and a clean, integrated appearance. This attention to detail means the fairings don’t look like a bolt-on accessory. Instead, they look like a genuine part of the motorcycle’s design. They provide a sleek, streamlined look that complements the aggressive styling of the BMW S1000RR and S1000R.

The fairings’ strength provides a higher level of protection for the subframe and other rear components compared to the stock plastic fairings. This makes the investment not only a style upgrade but also a practical, long-lasting modification. This can lead to small but noticeable improvements in handling, agility, and acceleration. This weight savings particularly benefits riders who use their bikes for track days, where every ounce counts toward faster lap times.
