Experienced organization (since 2005)
In 2021, for the 10th consecutive year, EYBIS has the support of the factory BMW Motorrad in Munich.
This means we can enable you to test the new BMW S 1000 RR on the track!
The cost of a test ride is 20 €.
This includes:
- insurance (max. costs in the event of a crash = 2.000 €)
- tyre usage
- gasoline for one session of a 20' ride (in your own group instead of your own motorcycle)
After the morning briefing you can - between 9.00 and 10.00 - register for a test session.
What to bring along:
- ID card
- Driver's license
- Credit card (2.000 € guarantee)
Together we will determine in which session you will test the new BMW S 1000 RR on the track.
Then we attend you at the EYBIS pit box 15’ before your test session, where you will be assigned a coach.
After a brief introduction, he will explain the main features of your test motorcycle.
After finishing your test ride you will be "received" by your coach who will be interested in your feedback.
Usually this is impossible
Normally, you can test a BMW during a session of 20' on the circuit.
Renting a BMW for a day or a complete event is usually impossible.
In next cases however, it's possible
For people who can prove that geographically they come from too far to be able to bring their own motorcycle to our event, we can make an exception.
Concretely this usually means: living outside Europe.
That way, we already could welcome at our events clients coming from:
- Australia
- California (USA)
- Canada
- Lebanon
- Russia
- South-Africa
- South-America
The number of motorcycles is limited.
