Aftermarket parts

Post by Mdrfkr »

Hello guys,

I recently became a new owner of a 21' R1250 RT...

And I've been looking on the internet to find some parts like:
- rear hugger
- registration plate holder
- slip on exhaust (found only Akrapovic and Remus which are quite expensive for cosmetical purposes only and I am looking for SC-project).

Basically, I am very disappointed because there's not much for the RT. Is there by any chance a model that has the same specifics and the related items can be fitted - i.e. the parts from R1250 R? Or maybe from GS?

Thanks for your comments/suggestions.

Greets & cheers from Slovenia.

Don't be disappointed. Basically the RT is a very well thought out bike and isn't in need of any of these gimmicks! Spend your money on fuel and enjoy it for what it is. A great bike!. 👍
The GS 'is' the better bike :-)

Crash bars and an Innovv K3 camera system are the only extras on mine currently.

Clearwater lights, crash bars, cameras, and Sargent seats for me, plus of course a different screen. Actually there’s more, but I don’t want to think about it or I’ll realise how much extra I’ve spent!

But in answer to the OP…
Rear hugger- not one made and several people have tried adaptations with no success.
Number plate mount - don’t know, never seen one advertised.
Slip on can - Akra or Remus, generally available on EBay.

The inferior GS doesn't even come with luggage and has loads of options for overpriced rubbish to make you poorer and a Charley want to be.

You’re worse than me Stu, there’s 6 things in your list I haven’t bought!
But I did buy a small Touratech tail pack, and different pillion pegs… oh… and a lowering kit for the riders pegs, and bar risers! :lol:

Let’s be honest, there’s lots of things you buy for your well-equipped RT to make it that bit better. 👍
