• Head Protection: Domed contours precisely match the magnesium VVT valve cover profile, shielding it from the scrapes and impacts that off-road riding causes.
• Stays Secured: A snap-fit hem locks around the crash bar and works together with cast stainless steel clamps to hold the guard firmly in place, even over rough terrain.
• Strong Clamps: 304 stainless steel custom cast clamps resist corrosion and provide a secure, long-lasting grip on the crash bars.
• Clean Look: Contours follow the crash bar profile to complement the factory aesthetic rather than looking like an afterthought.
• Quick Install: Designed to go on easily with included Loctite and first class manual
• Material: Formed 5052 aluminum
• Finish: Brushed raw silver
• Clamp Material: 304 stainless steel (custom cast)
• Attachment Method: Snap-fit hem with cast clamps
• Weight: 3.2 lbs
• Dimensions: 10 × 10 × 3 in
Crash bars protect a lot of the bike, but not the cylinder head itself. On the R 1250 GS, that head has a magnesium VVT valve cover — a part that gets scraped and gouged on off-road falls. These guards cover it.
The domed shape is not approximate. It follows the actual profile of the valve cover, so the guard sits flush and transfers impact load across the surface rather than concentrating it on one edge. The finish and contour are designed to match the factory look and the crash bar profile, so the result looks intentional.
The snap-fit hem is the key detail. It locks around the crash bar and works together with the cast stainless steel clamps to keep the guard from pulling free under stress. Other designs can rip off. This one is built so that does not happen. Installation is straightforward and all hardware is included.
