Tuning and modding » Accessory shelf for R1250RS

Hi, I am contemplating trying to fabricate an accessory shelf to replace my moto-mate gps relocation (nothing bad to say about this product!). Right now my radar detector is mounted to left of gps, off Moro-mate, and all works great… except the RD makes it hard for left hand to reach gps. The shelf would let me swap them left/right.

Curious if anyones seen one for the 1250? Or has ideas on fabrication.

Currently, I’m thinking of using a design similar to the Hornig, mounting to fairing bolts under sunscreen for support.

Here is a picture of one I made out of a piece of 1/16" aluminum sheet.

Thanks Chris! Looks good.

I was thinking above TFT for straight line stability and less movement but this could work. Any issues with radar in the curves? I would think counter steering would tilt it the wrong way.

I also went out to look and am now pondering using my TFT theft bracket w sun shade as a potential “shelf” to mount two ram balls 🧐

backRoadS, no problems with the radar detector, I think you'd have to be looking like Jay Springsteen at the mile to point the detector in the wrong direction.

Sometime simpler is better. Rather than try my hand fabricating a shelf, I modified the Moto-mate to accommodate two RAM balls allowing me to swap the radar detector and Garmin XT.
