FAQs
Are these grips suitable for models other than the R 1200 GS?
While designed for the R 1200 GS, their universal nature and standard diameter mean they may fit other BMW motorcycles or bikes with similar handlebar specifications. However, compatibility is not guaranteed for all models.
How do I know if they will fit my heated controls?
These grips are specifically stated as compatible with heated controls. Ensure your heated grip wires are correctly routed and that the grip is installed snugly over the heating element embedded in the handlebar.
What is the best way to install these grips?
Clean installation is crucial. Use a quality motorcycle grip adhesive and apply it evenly to the handlebar. Ensure the grip is slid on straight and allow the adhesive to cure fully according to the product instructions.
Can I cut the grips to size if they are too long?
Yes, the grips can be carefully trimmed to fit if the 122mm length is too long for your handlebars. Use a sharp utility knife and trim straight across the end.
What material are the grips made from?
They are made from a super soft material, designed for comfort and vibration absorption.
Where are these grips manufactured?
These grips are made in Italy.
What is the diameter of the grips?
The grips have a diameter of 24 mm on both sides.
Troubleshooting
Grips feel loose after installation.
Ensure a sufficient amount of motorcycle-specific grip adhesive was used and allowed to cure completely. Re-apply adhesive if necessary, ensuring full contact.
Grips interfere with throttle operation.
Check that the throttle-side grip is not binding against the throttle tube or handlebar housing. Ensure the grip is trimmed correctly if length was an issue during installation and that it slides freely.
Heated elements do not function effectively through the grips.
Confirm the grips are fully compatible with your specific R 1200 GS heated grip system. Ensure the grips are securely installed without any gaps that could impede heat transfer.
Grip material feels sticky or degrades over time.
Avoid using petroleum-based solvents or cleaners. Clean only with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Exposure to extreme heat or UV for prolonged periods may also affect the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
- Ensure the handlebars are clean and free of old grip residue.
- If using heated grips, carefully slide the new grips onto the corresponding handlebar sides (throttle side and clutch side).
- For the throttle side, ensure the grip slides freely over the throttle tube. Some lubrication (like a silicone-based spray, avoiding petroleum-based products) might be helpful, but use sparingly.
- Verify the grip length is suitable for your handlebars; minor trimming may be necessary if they extend beyond the control housing or bar-end weights.
- Secure the grips using a high-quality grip adhesive designed for motorcycle applications, following the adhesive manufacturer's instructions.
- Allow adhesive to cure fully before riding.
Compatibility:
- Designed for BMW R 1200 GS models.
- Compatible with heated grip systems.
- Standard handlebar diameter (24-24 mm).
Care:
- Clean the grips regularly with a damp cloth.
- Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can degrade the soft material.
- Inspect grips periodically for signs of wear or damage, especially around the ends and throttle tube interface.
