Aftermarket parts

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!.

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

Havent put anything on mine. Expensive enough without adding loads of extra stuff.

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.

Don't worry Stu,you soon realise when it comes to selling how all the extras do little to enhance the bikes value.When I get the GS I won't be spending the same as I did for the RT

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