Superb video! I have just purchased the exact same RT and have been fretting over whether to fit the Wunderlich bars. Some reviewers point to YT for videos on how to fit them and yours is spot on. Happy riding!

This was very helpful. Just installed it on my 2021 with your help! Thank you.

Top video, really useful on the fairing panel fixings.

Concise, clear Instruction, no waffle. Thank you for posting.

Great tutorial compliment to the sparse instructions from Wunderlich. I'll be watching again while installing mine guards. Many thanks from Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Thank you for the very detailed instructions. My Wunderlich bars are arriving today and, with your help, I plan to install them without any hesitation or complications. I especially like your heads-up with the R & R of the plastic parts. Greg from Sacramento.

Brilliant video/instruction. I just installed these on my 2022 R1250RT, and while not a exact match I was able to figure out the minor differences. Thanks very much!!!

Thankyou very much for good instructions. All done today with success :) /Anders, Sweden.

FANTASTIC TUTORIAL! Thanks so much for the effort and care on this video. You are greatly appreciated.

Finally got around to fitting mine. Excellent video, really helpful, especially the bodywork advice! Took me about three hours all told, goodness knows how long it would have taken!

I think the body work is the tricky bit in all of this! - Glad the video was helpful

You have a best money value. The cilinder protection is important to prevent expensive damages to repair. Great Job guys !

Thanks for sharing this instruction. Very helpful😊

I'm a little late, but nicely done! Your filming was excellent showing detail up close and your dialog was clear and concise. I have a 2024 model with my name on it coming in February. Hopefully sooner, because it's really hard waiting for it, haha. They are pretty expensive, but I do plan on fitting the Wunderlich bars as I prefer their mounting and aesthetics to the Ilium Works version, even though Ilium's headquarters is just down the street from me.

Very well done instructional video, hats off to you!

many thanks - the more I ride the 1250 the more I like it!

Excellent video, thank you very much. I managed to put them on by removing only the first plastic cover, you will have to screw the upper part of the bar from the front of the bike, but it is done without problems.

Brilliant, good job man.👍👍👍👍👍

Thank you very much it has been very useful

Brilliant tutorial. Thanks.

Excelente explicación. Muy útil.

Very good video.. I have some Givi bars to fit to mine and whilst I am sure they will be a bit different to fit, to these, this is a very useful video so that I have some idea of what to do/expect. The instructions that come with the Givi Bars is absolute rubbish. I cant find a video for fitting them on an R1250RT 19/20 with fog lights. Thanks for taking the time to do this video. I have this one saved!

I wanted to install the front GIVI bars on my 2020 R1250RT; however, the issue is that my motorbike is equipped with fog lights, and the GIVI Bars do not have a place to mount the bracket.

Looks very Nice!

Excellent video thanks. Just installed the same one on my R1250 rt 2021. I have hard time with the positioning of the bottom bolt the hole was not straight with the mounting bar. I had to unscrewed the first 2 bolts but even that was not able to aligned easily the bottom bolt. I finally succeeded but I was scared to screwed cross tread. Not sure why that bottom bolt was off maybe my mistake or a production problem.

On the new 2021 RT these bars don’t fit without some modifications if transferring the engine bars from a 2019 1250 RT to a 2021 RT Good video helped me make the swop with help of a trolly Jack to modify the fit of the bars 👍

Hi Richard , all it needs it to be opened up , I did this with a car Jack which spread the bracket by about 5 MM or a bit less , just gentle pressure needed to spread the tubing , nothing dramatic just took a bit of setting up and alignment check , under rather than over stretch I decided as easier to open the gap than close it if over opened if you follow Hope that helps Stu

Nice bike.

I am going to try the mounts first.

Excellent video ! One Q though what’s the nM tension for the lower front and the top front I got the 54nM for rear but want to get the others right … cheers

Great video, very helpful. My only issue is the left side fog light wire harness is an inch too short. I haven’t figured out how to create relief in the harness to allow it to connect. I’ve removed a couple zip ties to no avail.

Same issue here. The left side fog light wire is about an inch too short also, 2020 RT. Unless somebody finds a resolution to this design flaw, all I can think of is to extend it by splicing and adding two inches of wire.

I didn’t like how far forward the fog light was pushed using then OEM mount, plus i didn’t want to splice the original wire harness. I found mounts, from a company in China, which clamp to the crash bars. The wire harness is just long enough to connect to the fog light.

Looking to fit VIOFO MT1 cameras, also sold by the seller of the INNOVV K2 cameras and recommended by them. They say that they will fit the same as the K2 and are similar quality.

@@SP-ek2qz there is a switched supply that runs the sat nav, it’s just behind the headlamp. It terminates on the in built multi contact garmin mounting point. If you are not running the Garmin sat nav then this would be an ideal take off point. Nippy normans in the uk sell a cable assembly that replaces the section from the connector to the multi contact mount. It’s designed to power ‘ignition on’ accessories. You have to take the screen and top section of central dash board off to get at it...

I've not done the valve adjustment on the bike yet, will be post warranty when I start servicing it - but the forums suggest you can remove the covers without removing the bars - does not impede full service, but do please double check this.

do you loose much clearance? would the foot pegs still hit first? I'm not into racing around corners but I am concerned about clearance when adding bars. thanks for the vid.

I did some fast twisties here in the UK Peak District recently on the RT and didn’t have a problem with the bars grounding. Like you I’m not into the racing around corners but as the bike goes round corners so well I have certainly explored this side of its nature. I can’t say if the pegs hit first. I think the bars are worth fitting.
