On an R 1150 GS or a Ténéré used for touring and on dirt roads, it can mean the difference between a scratch and a lever bent in half halfway through the day, far from home. The manufacturer clearly distinguishes between the two configurations in the range: the \u003cem\u003esingle-point\u003c\/em\u003e version, mounted only at the end of the handlebar, is intended for protection from wind and weather, not impacts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterials and construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe structure is made of heat-treated aluminium, a process the manufacturer uses to increase strength and impact absorption. The design is wraparound: it starts at the straight section of the handlebar, curves around the hand and closes at the end.
