The BMW R 1200 GSW was the latest evolution of the iconic adventure bike and it is now being followed up by the R 1250 GS. Built to travel the world on the road and off, the hefty bike is bound to have a tip over sooner or later. Protect your upper fairings and radiator from adventure-ending damage with upper crash bars from AltRider.
The upper crash bars use our new specially designed Stainless-steel clamps, to mount to the AltRider lower crash bars for the R 1250 GS to provide a robust base. This new clamping system has a welded clamp on the end of each bar and makes for an easy installation of the uppers to the lowers. A third mounting point underneath the front beak of the motorcycle ensures the upper crash bars can take the toughest of hits while providing complete protection for your upper fairings and radiator. The upper crash bars are mandrel bent from 1 inch (25.4 mm) stainless steel tubing and are available in a shot peen satin, or powder coat black, triple black (grey), red, white or blue finish.
AltRider upper crash bars utilize the same mounting location as the BMW auxiliary LED's. To mount the auxiliary lights with the AltRider upper crash bars, see the AltRider OEM Light Mounts.
