The only BMW kit available for the RT Is the cylinder protection one.  I have them fitted.  They are high quality stainless steel and do the job.  The GS bars will not fit due to the lower fairing.

+1 for the OEM cylinder head guards. Nice bit of kit which blends in with the bike nicely.

As previously stated these won't fit the RT as the bottom fixing point is behind the lower fairing. in addition the top fixing is not possible as the telilever arm is different and would get in the way.

Can't find any Authorities kit on Real OEM.  But a pic I have seen of a police bike at Garmisch shows them and you wouldn't want them.  it also looks like the lower fairing is different exposing the fixing lugs.

that's a great list.  Can't find the crash bars but I want the shotgun/assault rifle mounting bracket.

Why specifically OEM engine bars? There are good engine bars out there no different to how BMW would contract a company to manufacture for them. I got mine from Wunderlich and I'm very pleased with them.
