Hi all,
Just about to pick up my RT and I've already bought Wunderlich pannier protection bars. The bike already has engine bars.
I am looking for the police-style front crash bars - the ones that stick out to the sides and usually have lights or sirens mounted. Preferably black.
Any ideas?

Found a pair on eBay yesterday. IRC, selling for £80. I think i searched for BMW Accessories. They also had the rears for sale as well

Thanks for that - I tried those search parameters and could only find stuff for cars - don't suppose you could post a link?

It seems that they will not sell "authority" parts to civilians although I have sent an e-mail just in case! But thanks again.

Re: Police style front crash bars
Yes, ebay from Lithunia (!) - they were a bit scuffed but I had them cleaned up and powder coated in black to match the rest of the metalwork on the bike. They have a built in mounting point for the BMW driving lights and IMHO look very business-like.
