New Member Introductions » Handlebar Conversion kit for R1200RS

Hi, new to this forum. I have a 2016 R1200RS with Corbin seat, GPR slip on exhaust, National Cycle screen, Suburban footpeg loiwering kit and Heli Bar risers. Looking to go to a tubular style handlebar. Wunderlich makes a kit, but too expensive for me. Looking for an alternative and know they are out there. any ideas? Looking for a more upright position and wider bar.

Welcome to the site James.
The R1200R bars and clamps will work on the RS but they may cost more than the Wunderlich kit.

Thank you, Lee

James Welcome to the R1200RS kingdom.
I have a handlebar conversion, that I bought from a fellow RS member. I can’t remember the brand. I will take picture tonight and post back with specs.
But essentially, I had the MV Motorrad bar riser kit which brought the OEM bars up 1.5" and back 1.75" if I recall.
This was still not enough for me, I also have a Russel seat, which is a bit higher than the high OEM seat. So, I went with the conversion bar and a bar riser for the R1200R and now it’s perfect for me. I am only 5'11" so this set up may vary for you as we are all different ridding position.

With the seat, brake pedal enlarger, handlebar style and heated seat, I can now ride for 8-10 hrs in a day no problem.
