Good, well made and easy to install. Needed to enlarge hole on left side - as many others have said. Great supplement to stock mirrors on my 2006 1200 RT

This product worked great in the blank stem mirror holes on my BMW K 1200 LT. The OEM mirroors are to low and cuts out a lot of site.

I just put these on my 2007 R1200 RT. They look great and give me the rear view that the stock mirrors are lacking in. I do have to agree with the others that Wunderlich shoud have these fit out of the box. I do have a dremmel but not the right bit to cut the metal to widen the hole so it was a trip to the hardware store to drop 11 bucks on a bit. The left side was pretty easy there is good clearance but the right side was pretty tricky due to the throttle wires. Also i put locktite on the nuts on the suggestion of other reviewers. despite those two issues, I do recommend these mirrors.
Works great on 2005 1200RT

These fit the available holes in the RT handlebars quite well, although the bottom holes do need to be enlarged slightly. I needed to use some Shoe Goo glue to hold them in place after I got the stems in the right position because even a slight bump was enough to move them out of alignment, i just could not get the nut tight enough to do the job well. I LOVE these mirrors and almost never even glance at the original mirrors, these give a great view to the rear and side, just as effective as the ones on my GS.
I see you back there

I can finally see what's behind me without bending my head over and pulling in my elbow. I ride with the top case all the time and it usually blocked half of my view. These are great and now I dont know how I got along without them. Had the same problem a few others reported with one of the holes being to small. Wrapped some sandpaper around a small dowel and in a couple minutes it was fine. Very small amount of vibration above about 65 but not enough to blur the traffic. Maybe couldn't read a license plate but that was about it I definitely recommend these

Even though Wunderlich claims these will fit my bike, the threaded rod is too big for the existing mirror hole on my handlebar. The web site advises that I can fix this by firing up my Dremel. With all due respect, I consider this a bogus answer. Why couldn't they just make it fit in the first place?

I purchased a 2006 RT 1200RT new and have taken it on many Western United States and Canada tours. One had to always be deliberate in checking the mirrors due to their placement on the bike. After reading reviews in BMW ON I decided it was time to try these mirrors. They have improved my ability to be more cognizant of what is going on behind me and, I am sure, be a safer rider. I would recommend these mirror to anyone who asks.
Jus as advertised

Our '09 RT's mirrors were woefully lacking in direct rear view so prior to our road trip to Montana I ordered the (one) mirror and thanks to timely shipping it arrived in time to install the night before we left. As mentioned in the installation video I needed to do some modification to the mount but it then fit perfectly. My view of rear approaching traffic was exceptional and made the trip, I'm sure, much safer. It looks just like the stock mirrors on my '12 GS and is of identical quality. It does detract from the RT's flowing lines but I'll be able to live with that and maybe order another for the right side.

The Wunderlich mirrors offer much improved rear visibility compared to the stock mirrors on the R1150RT. There was no problem in installing the mirrors in the factory holes in the handlebar mounts. I used Locktite to prevent loosening and loss of the nuts. The only problem is some image blurring due to engine vibration at certain speeds. Overall they are well worth the price for safety and peace of mind.
Objects in the rear view mirror can finally be seen!

Two-up and fully loaded with panniers and a bag slung across the topbox mount, my R12RT has about zero point zip rearwards view. After trying to solve this with small stick-on convex mirrors, I had a pair of Wunderlich\'s mirrors freighted to New Zealand. Much success! Finally I can see what is behind me. One of the few grumbles about the R12RT has been easily solved. The left mirror needed a small amount of metal removed from the mount for it to fit, but it is a SMALL amount, so don\'t go too crazy with the filing. I\'d also recommend using some threadlocker (Loctite 222 or similar), as the nuts are BMW originals and worth $10 each.
