Universal ADV Handlebar Heightening Piece Hand Guard for R1200GS S1000XR F750GS F800adv
Riders of adventure motorcycles often face challenges from wind and debris that can interfere with hand control during long rides. This universal handlebar heightening piece and hand guard set is designed to add a protective layer to your hands while also raising the handlebar position slightly to suit your ergonomic preferences. Compatible with popular BMW models like the R1200GS ADV, S1000XR, F750GS, and F800adv, this kit offers a straightforward solution for improving rider comfort and protection. Available in three colour options—brown, grey, and transparent—the guards are made from lightweight plastic, each weighing just 120g to keep added weight to a minimum.
Features and Construction
This handlebar guard kit is built around simplicity and universal compatibility. The plastic construction keeps the guards light while providing a physical barrier against wind and small impacts. The packing size of 30 x 40 x 25 cm indicates the guards are compact enough to ship conveniently.
Material and Build
The guards are made from plastic, a common choice for adventure motorcycle accessories due to its low weight and adequate rigidity for wind deflection. Each guard weighs 120g, meaning the complete set adds only 240g to your bike—a negligible increase for a touring or adventure machine. The plastic is designed to withstand typical riding conditions without adding unnecessary bulk.
Size and Practical Fit
With a packing size of 30 x 40 x 25 cm, the guards are sized to fit standard adventure handlebars. The universal design aims to work across multiple BMW models, including the R1200GS ADV, S1000XR, F750GS, and F800adv. No specific dimensions for the guards themselves are provided beyond the packing size, so riders should verify fitment with their specific motorcycle model before purchase.
Uses and Placement
These handlebar guards are intended for adventure touring and dual-sport riding where wind protection and hand safety are priorities. They can be used as a practical addition to both on-road and off-road trips.
Event or Professional Use
For riders participating in long-distance tours or adventure rallies, these guards help reduce wind fatigue on the hands, allowing for more controlled riding over extended periods. The universal fit makes them easy to install on multiple bikes if needed.
Everyday Home Use
As a simple DIY upgrade for your adventure motorcycle, these guards can be mounted in a home workshop with basic tools. The lightweight plastic means they don't strain the handlebars, and the three colour options let you match your bike's existing look.
Benefits and Buying Value
The main advantages of this kit are its universal fit, light weight, and simple design. Riders get functional hand protection without a heavy price or complicated installation process.
Reuse and Low Maintenance
Plastic guards require minimal upkeep—simply clean with a damp cloth as needed. They are designed to be reused across different motorcycles of compatible models, making them a practical investment for riders who change bikes often.
Why Choose This Product
If you own a R1200GS ADV, S1000XR, F750GS, or F800adv and want a simple, lightweight hand guard option, this kit provides exactly that. The availability of brown, grey, or transparent finishes lets you personalise your bike without sacrificing functionality.
