Hello all.

Though there are a multitude of crash bars/cages for the R1200R/RS that surround the engine, there are no rear crash bars (that I can find) to protect the tail. The R1200RT has them available but nothing for the R/RS.

However, when I watched a recent ItchyBoots YouTube video where she rides with the Danish motorcycle police, I see that they use a R1200R with crash bars attached to the pannier mounts/rear pegs (see link below: watch/pause specifically at 3:06 to get a good view)

My Google/eBay skills have failed me in that I am unable to find any manufacturer that offers these bars. Does anyone know who makes them and, if so, how one goes about getting a pair?

Thanks.

Took some work to see what you're looking at. My guess is that they are custom made for police departments. The number needed would not support mass production. It essentially makes it so the bike can be laid down or knocked over without doing any damage to end it's ability to continue operating. Best bet would be to contact the agency in question and talk to someone who does vehicle procurement. They would know what extras they order for their fleet.
