Re: Can you buy a base model R 1250 RT?

Here in Canada, l was told, ordering is the only way to get one. The base has CC and heated grips plus the TFT [so NAV] so it is nicely equipped.

Re: Do the Tubular Handlebars Change the RT Riding Position?

Wow thank you David as I did not find the risers in my searches!! I just updated my order with the dealer for my 2023 build and added the tubular handlebars. To be honest I actually prefer the look of the tubular 'bars and if down road I need/want risers it is much easier and better looking then sta...

Re: Do the Tubular Handlebars Change the RT Riding Position?

Has anyone found risers that work on a R1250RT with tubular handlebars? All the searches l have completed only show risers for the 'standard' handlebars. I guess risers that fit the GS would work, but maybe not. I wonder how much the bars can be lifted without having to modify brake lines and/or ele...

Re: Bar Risers

I bet both the Wunderlich and Illium Works are manufactured in China as are most of the worlds goods. I have used the cheap Amazon bar risers with great results.

I wonder how many people have gone for the tubular option and why they pay extra for them [almost $300 here in Canada]? I b...

Do the Tubular Handlebars Change the RT Riding Position?

Does anyone know if the optional tubular handlerbars change the RT riding position by being higher and wider than the standard handlebar? I read the 2023 R1250R will have optional tubular handlebars that are higher and wider and wondered if that applied to the RT as well. I emailed a few local deale...
