The factory spec R is delivered with a sporty sitting position that inclines toward the handlebar. Anyone who does not like sitting bent over will find here the ergonomic symbiosis of the perfect touring posture with a relaxing long-distance travel sitting position. Small change - astonishing effect: In this way even longer tours will be a pleasure.
The facts:
For the R models a raised handlebar is a particularly sensible investment, as the options for handlebar angle increase at the same time which in turn has a positive effect on rider posture. The bars are raised by 25 mm and brought slightly towards the rider. This riser has allowed every R rider who has tried it to find a completely personal setting.
Please Note: The bar risers for the R1200R are designed for model years up to 2010 only.
