Stainless steel upper protection bars for BMW R1200GS LC

The protective footpeg extension Touratech protects the delicate radiator, fairing and even the tank of the new water-cooled Boxer.
BMW has integrated the water radiator into the R1200GS as tightly as possible, but the corners still stick out quite a bit. So even a small, unlucky fall can leave you stranded on a trip. Costly repairs are often unavoidable.
Scratches on fairing parts, an inexhaustible source of bad moods, are completely ruled out with the crash bar extension from Touratech.
The extension is made exclusively from robust electropolished stainless steel and is therefore corrosion-proof. Even the deepest scratches are not so bad, because they can simply be rectified.

The impressive tube diameter does not prevent the crash bar from being mounted as close as possible and symmetrically to the vehicle axle. It has practically no influence on the ground clearance and tilt clearance. The extension of the crash bar is exactly the same as a component of the motorcycle.


- In the event of a fall or overturning of the machine, the forces generated are absorbed and transferred through the engine crash bars to the points provided for this purpose without further damage.
- Protects the rider and motorcycle due to generously dimensioned cross-sections, even in the event of a frontal collision.
- Stable multiple attachment due to high-strength attachment to the engine protection bracket and bolting to the front of the vehicle.
- Gives the R1200GS a touch of "adventure"
- Suitable only in combination with our protective running board (045-5160) and original BMW original fenders.
- For all BMW R1200GS since 2013.

The protective running board is both a visual enhancement and also a completely useful investment to protect your R1200GS from costly damage. the ideal addition to the existing Touratech engine protection bracket (045-5160)!
