Seat conversion for your BMW S 1000 XR (2015–2019) – comfort, ergonomics and individuality with Hornig
Why a seat conversion for your BMW S 1000 XR (2015–2019) is a worthwhile investment
The BMW S 1000 XR (2015–2019) combines sporty dynamics with touring comfort. However, the standard seat is often not sufficient if you frequently ride long distances, have specific preferences for seat height, width or padding, or simply want maximum comfort. A professional seat conversion by Hornig provides the perfect solution: we adapt your seat individually – in height, contour, firmness, and even in width – so that you can ride more safely and comfortably on every journey.
Our services for your BMW S 1000 XR (2015–2019)
- Padding and shape adjustment – targeted reworking of the foam for better pressure distribution and improved seating comfort.
- Re-covering & customization – high-quality, weather-resistant cover materials; optional color accents or contrast stitching.
- Seat heating retrofit – comfort upgrade for colder days.
- Width adjustment – we reshape your seat to be wider or narrower to perfectly match your body size and riding style.
- Universal comfort cushion – a quick solution for more comfort if a complete redesign is not desired.
What customization options are available?
