According to the parts fiche, it looks like it's the same part set but the actual grip is a diff number:

R1200GS

HP2

I seem to recall that they weren't originally available for the HP and people were retro fitting regular GS grips... but I could be totally wrong!

Which dealer did you speak to? I'd recommend a chat with James at North Oxford BMW... he's normally pretty good at providing a no BS answer...

Thanks for the info I will give Oxford bmw a call Bhanstormers Alton would not comment on the difference but quoted me £287 for a hp2 set that seems a tad expensive when motor works do the 1200 Gs ones second hand for £30 each and a switch set for about £75

Eddie, I think it comes down to programming but if I recall the HP2 starter button is slightly different from the GS

Eddy, I've got a set of Oxford grips on my Megamoto and they work fine, and a lot cheaper as well
