R12 G/S Bar risers, photos and options

[squid]

I bought my bike from stock so it came without the enduro option.

Can someone post a photo of the bmw enduro pack bar risers?

A standard pair of aftermarkets are not going to fit. The front and back bolts are different sizes.

Although it looks like a couple of flat plates and longer bolts would do the job?

Thanks

Found a diagram on a French bmw site.

Guidon de moto for BMW Motorrad R 12 G/S from 2025 - BMW Motorrad

It looks like the clamp M8 bolt 7 is short and only the M10 bolt 6 is a long thru bolt. Item 4 pins them together.

I'll need to take a closer look at the bike to see if its just a flat riser block that would be needed.

I haven't yet removed the bar mounts to get a proper look but they appear to have a cup in the bottom to seat on the yoke. Cannot see from the parts sketch but the riser plates must have too in which case.
A bit more work involved then to make a set.

I’ve gone with Voigt risers on my 21 RnineT I guess they are the same, plus the 20mm blocks also from Voigt

Steve,
These are a rip off set but assume a copy of the ones you have fitted.
On this drawing it says 28mm, the bars on the R12 G/S are 28.6mm
Bmw seem to use a wide variety of bar sizes between models and years.

But basically you have the branded ones similar + a 20mm block.?
Maybe the block alone will be a fit, i'll try and find details.


Cheers.

The 20mm blocks can be found on eBay for about £16 , knock offs but fine
The bars are 28mm at the clamps
Don’t think they would change them by 0.6 mm

This could work then, 20mm spacer for not a lot of money.

Think i'd want more height if paying more but worth testing out. If fits I'll hit them with black satin

Pardon our interruption...

Not sure if the link above works now as bought the last pair locally for just under £18.

The bmw 20mm spacers were coming up as €60 x 2 plus bolts + vat + postage

Voigt and wunderlich also make them for more £££

Bars on the G/S are 28.6 which is the standard for 'fat bars' as they call them.
I measured just to check.
However, not an issue as the 20mm spacers you recommend arrived and fit perfectly. Even the bolts were the correct length. So that's £16 ish vs the big money bmw show on their parts list for basically the same thing.
They are silver but that fits in fine as the fork top caps are also.
I'll add a photo when get one taken.

Thanks for the tip off.

Thumbs up from me on the risers. At 6'1" I find they make all the difference on comfort.
