Is there such a thing or anyone cable of designing and making some. Sugarcube had a off in Morocco and broke his with his boot.
My interest is for the 1200 TP but the 1150 looks larger and more vulnerable.
Picture is of a broken 1200 TP

Touratech do one as well

BMW R 1200 GS and Adventure
Throttle potentiometer cover £ 19,84




You know the problem! Broken throttle potentiometer plugs because your boots get caught on them. This is now a thing of the past. With our beautiful, rugged cover your boots will no longer get stuck.Made of 3 mm anodised aluminium.
The cover is fitted using two spacers and longer M4 x 40 head screws.

For 1200GS, Wunderlich one fits with 3 bolts (one extra through small hole at 4 o'clock where the cable tie is) , TT use two.
