How to install Motorcycle Heli HandleBar Risers on R 1250 RS Sport Touring

Hello Folks and as always welcome to my channel,
I installed Handlebar Risers to this R 1250 RS motorcycle , easy and fast installation with very happy results on the riding position and comfort when you riding long distance Sport Touring .
Thanks for watching!

I have a different kit and handlebar riser fitted ( even higher than the one in this video ) and it’s made my RS my forever bike … all day comfortable with all the RS best bits too 👍

Thanks and share what kind or brand do you have!

@@baden-baden I wish I knew myself , I had a bmw K1200s and obvious choice was to replace with an XR but that meant no shaft , I didn’t want to be a Charlie with a GS so went looking around and I found an RS , one owner 7000 miles with these high rise bars ( complete new bars similar to the GS ) and it’s so comfortable so I bought it on the spot and so pleased I did . I was told that on the RS you could actually order it from the factory with high bars as obviously the brake /clutch lines etc are all longer too but I’m not to certain about that , but whoever bought my bike new had ticked every option so it wouldn’t surprise me if they are BMW fitment

Thanks as always for your support!!

Good video. How does this affect your tank bag setup? Does it still fit?

[@baden-baden]

Not at all, still fits perfect the tank bag. Thx

[@michaelkritter5504]

Did you have to do anything with your cables?

[@baden-baden]

Just reattach the GPS wire to the handlebar. Thx

[@gambomambo7994]

I saw another video, in which someone had to reroute the clutch cable. I don’t think that is necessary either…

[@dougiequick1]

Personally I would just as soon entirely LOSE the stock RS bars altogether and just bolt on conventional flat bar like you can with the 1250R....do they make adaptors for that? I just cant warm up to stock RS bars with or without risers

[@ricsut515]

Yes. I ordered mine with the factory tubular bars. Very comfortable. Turned out from stock and 32" across.

[@ricsut515]

And they cool too me. Mine a black with the R1250 Logo. No more wrist on base of the neck pinch. !

[@ricsut515]

Sorry but do not follow this. There is a specific tightening pattern and torque specs. Hand tighten top 2 bolts first. Hand tighten bottom 2 bolts next. Always leave a gap on bottom side of clamp. Next torque to specs top 2 bolts. Final torque to specs bottom 2 bolts. That is BMW specs!.
