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.
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.
Just as Advertised

I'm very pleased with the purchase of these mirrors. They were easy to install and seem like they are of good quality. There is a little vibration in the right side one but not bad. I don't detect any additional turbulence at normal highway speeds. The added visibility is great, just what I was looking for. I would recommend these to anyone looking for improved rear visibility.
Excellent product

The mirrors do just what they are supposed to do. Easy to install, looks like a factory product and greatly improves visibility. Every R1200RT should have a set of these.

Now that I installed them on my BMW R1200RT I find myself using them more than the factory originals. They work and look great on my bike. They are at eye level which makes it easy to focus on them. Whereas with the originals you have took look down some and refocus.
Excellent mirror

This mirror fit my stock 09 R1200RT with no modifications necessary. Excellent form, fit & finish. Very good service from Wunderlich, and the best price I could find on the Net. The only thing I would point out is the mirror is very slightly convex, which is not mentioned in the product description. Regardless, it complements the stock mirrors on my RT nicely and I'm glad I bought it.

A must-have accessory if you own a BMW R1150RT or R1200RT. I have owned both of these models and just purchased a pair of these mirrors for my 2005 RT. With these mirrors, your view of the traffic behind you will be extended because they sit way above your grips. They are made to look and fit like they are part of the bike. Reasonably priced. Easy to install and no tools required.

Very satisfatorily adds additional rear visio to mt RT, both when loaded and when riding solo. I can see behind much more easily. My eyes don't have to look as far down, either.

Much better vision than the factory mirrors. Quality is good. Fits as advertised with some slight modification to the holes in the grip. Please note that the fastener for the left mirror will not work with the horn guard provided with the Urban Tour tank bag 1250159. I had to machine my own fastener solution for that combination.
