Cylinder Protection Guards for BMW R1200GS/ ST/ RT

BMW R1200GS R1200RT R1200ST Cylinder Protection Guards VER 4901-10159

Cylinder protectors made from plastic may do their job when your motorcycle tips over or hits a soft surface, but what about gravel, asphalt, or when your bike goes down while driving? Can they stand up to the weight and force of the load during the duress of a skid?

In a minor event, you will need to replace your plastic cylinder protector each time it cracks or shatters. In a major event, when your plastic cylinder protector cracks or shatters, it won't be there to do its job: Protecting your very expensive Cylinder.

The Solution: Protect your cylinder with these sleek Steel Plates, not Plastic or Pipe!

These cylinder protectors are made from strong, 2mm high-grade steel with large dimensions and a heat-resistant silicon buffer. They fasten to the cylinder head cover at the existing head cover fastening points.

Advantages:

• The appearance of your motorcycle is virtually unaltered.
• They are fast to install and de-install.
• The total weight of the motorcycle is minimally affected.
• The aerodynamics are not negatively affected.
• A rub through is practically impossible.
• Developing scratches or depressions in the high-grade steel sheet metal can be removed with sandpaper and/or with a hammer very easily and fast (without technical or optical depreciation).

The cylinder protectors are the steel part shown on the lower half of the cylinder (see photo). The yellow part is not included.

Fits R1200 Boxer Engines up to 2009 model year. Does not fit 2010 R1200GS 4 Valve Twin Cam.
