ADV Handlebar Heightening Piece for BMW Motorcycles – Universal Hand Guard Modification in Brown, Grey or Transparent

This handlebar heightening piece is a practical accessory for adventure riders who cover long distances on BMW models such as the R1200GS ADV, S1000XR, F750GS and F800adv. By raising the hand guard position slightly, it helps reduce strain on your wrists during extended rides, allowing a more natural arm angle. The universal design fits these specified models without the need for extensive modifications. Made from lightweight plastic, each guard weighs just 120g, so it adds negligible weight to your handlebars. Available in brown, grey or transparent finishes, you can choose the look that best matches your bike.

Features and Construction

These heightening pieces are straightforward in function and built from practical materials. The plastic construction keeps the parts light yet resistant to the elements. The packing size of 30 by 40 by 25 cm accommodates a pair of guards, suitable for fitting to both handlebar sides.

Material and Build

The plastic material offers weather resistance without adding bulk. Each unit weighs 120g, ensuring minimal impact on steering balance. The transparent option allows the original handlebar colour to show through, while brown and grey integrate with standard ADV colour schemes.

Size and Practical Fit

The heightening pieces are designed to fit handlebars of the listed BMW models. The packing dimensions of 30 x 40 x 25 cm give an idea of the guard size, but exact dimensions of the heightening piece itself depend on the specific model. Always verify fitment before purchasing.

Uses and Placement

These guards are intended for adventure and touring motorcycles where rider comfort on long journeys is a priority. The raised position also provides extra hand protection from wind and debris.

Event or Professional Use

For professional riders or those on organised ADV tours, reduced wrist fatigue can improve control and endurance over a full day in the saddle. The low weight and plastic build make them suitable for off-road use where handling remains important.

Everyday Home Use

Daily commuters on these BMW models can also benefit from the heightening piece, especially if they spend time in stop-and-go traffic. The three colour options mean you can match or contrast with existing handlebar accessories.

Benefits and Buying Value

These heightening pieces offer a straightforward way to adjust riding ergonomics without buying new handlebars. The universal fit for several popular BMW models makes them a versatile choice for owners of multiple bikes.

Reuse and Low Maintenance

The plastic material requires minimal care – simply wipe clean after rides. No special maintenance is needed beyond occasional checks that the mounting bolts remain tight.

Why Choose This Product

If you own an R1200GS ADV, S1000XR, F750GS or F800adv and find the standard hand guard position causes wrist discomfort, this heightening piece offers a simple, low-cost solution. The three colour choices let you personalise the look without sacrificing function.
