Conversion: Tubular Bar

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Larry (SC) | April 19th, 2026

I previously had Helibars on my RS. While the riser helped reduce the forward lean a bit, I was still looking for something more comfortable for longer rides. I also wanted better leverage for tackling curvy mountain roads. This setup delivered on both fronts—the bike feels more flickable and significantly more comfortable. The team at Wunderlich was excellent. I went there in person and had them handle the installation. Everyone was friendly, knowledgeable, passionate about riding, and easy to work with. I highly recommend them.

These tubular bars are exactly what I needed. The kit comes with everything you need including easy to follow instructions. I was hesitant about rerouting the clutch hydraulic line to get more slack, since I was concerned about having to bleed the system. But the instructions covered how to bleed from the top reservoir and it worked perfectly. I was of the mindset the bleeder had to be opened which is NOT easy to get to just above the exhaust system and extremely tight access.

Excellent upgrade for my BMW R1250RS

I have a 2022 BMW R1250RS with the clip on style handlebars. Hated the stock bars. Way too “wristy” and uncomfortable. After much research, I decided to have the Winderlich bars installed. When the package arrived, everything was well packaged. Had them installed by my local dealer with no problem what so ever. No issues with the brake or clutch lines either, the bars fit perfectly. Did not even need to use those unsightly brake or clutch line extenders. As far as the riding position, it is spot on for making the bike more comfortable and fun to ride. I should have installed these sooner.

What a difference - no more sore wrists or numb hands. Worth the $$$ imo. Installation time about two hours, kept referring to the YT videos as the factory instructions are...interesting.

These are the bars that should have come with the bike!

The rider position on my R1250RS is a little more toward "sport" than "touring." These bars raise the position to something more like a GS. The fit and finish of the bars and included hardware is first rate as expected from Wunderlich.. They look very OEM. It's not too difficult to install them. However, the printed installation instructions are worthless. There are several DIY videos on YouTube which will make the process easier. Go slow when you are removing your switch gear and handlebar controls. Make note of where each screw and bolt came from. Overall I am very pleased with my purchase.

The riding position is more comfortable. The steering is quicker and lighter. I am now more in the wind stream so more noise. The install was not complicated. I recommend the Hornig bar install video. I used a clutch adapter instead of rerouting. I should have done this much sooner.

Received the conversion and took about an hour to install. I had the bike disassembled down to the handlebar already. Read the instructions several times online and read the reviews also. Fit and finish is great. Just had to cut a couple of factory zip ties on the forward frame to give the brake and clutch hoses some extra slack. No need to re-route the clutch line as in the instructions. I had a set of Heli-bars installed before but I wanted a little more up and back. These bars provide that. I am still experimenting with rotating the bars through the indicated range.

Awesome product

The tube style conversion handlebars are a fantastic upgrade. The beautiful styling is second to none. The ergonomics with these bars are fantastic putting you in a more upright riding position for longer rides. The packaging is super with really nice cloth bags that can be reused. You will not be disappointed with these upgrade bars or any Wunderlich products for that matter. You pay more for these, but the quality products won’t ever have to be replaced on your bike. Once and done.

Excellent fit and finish, will need a Torx T8 wrench to complete installation. You can either reroute the clutch line or Hornig makes an adapter for $48 to give enough length. It will connect without either but it puts a lot of tension in the clutch line in right turns. The adapter sorts that. Transforms the bike into a Megamoto with a better fairing and more power. Much more control authority over the steering. Well worth the money!
