Description Barkbusters BHG-124 handguard mounting kit for BMW R1300GS, black

The BHG-124 is the specific mounting kit for BMW R1300GS and R1300GS Adventure from 2024 onward: heat-treated, black-painted aluminum bar, clamps, and hardware. It is the frame only, without plastics.

Check this before ordering

There are two different kits for the R1300GS, and the difference is not the motorcycle but the turn signal setup.

What your GS is like Correct code
Motorcycle with the Enduro Pro package: the turn signals are outside the handguards BHG-124, this product
The standard handguards have an integrated amber turn signal BHG-133, which includes replacement LED turn signals

The manufacturer is explicit: this kit is designed for the R1300GS equipped with the Enduro Package Pro in its original factory specification. If your motorcycle has the amber light in the handguard, either choose the BHG-133 or have BMW install the Enduro Pro package, which moves the indicators.

Impact protection

Two mounting points and heat-treated aluminum. Barkbusters states that this configuration is designed for impact protection: this is the substantial difference compared with the original handguards, which are primarily designed for wind protection.

The plastics are NOT included

For this kit, the manufacturer lists four series:

Plastic Characteristics
JET-003 Compact profile, more air around the hand
VPS-203 Adjustable wind deflector with two positions: adventure and touring
STM-003 The most extensive coverage in the range: road use and cold weather
BCF-003 Genuine carbon fiber

EGO plastics are not compatible.

What you will find in the package

  • Two heat-treated, black-painted aluminum bars.
  • Clamps and complete hardware.

What is NOT included

  • Protective plastics, to be chosen from JET, VPS, STORM, and CARBON.
  • LED turn signals, which are included with the BHG-133 and are not needed with this kit.

Why buy it from Endurrad

Free shipping in Italy for orders over €100 and in Europe for orders over €250, returns within 14 days, and support in Italian. If you are not sure which setup your GS has, send us a photo of the handlebar: we will tell you which of the two kits you need.

Why choose it
  • Protezione dagli impatti dichiarata. Due punti di fissaggio e alluminio trattato termicamente, contro paramani originali pensati per il vento.
  • Quattro plastiche compatibili. JET, VPS, STORM e CARBON: una in più rispetto al BHG-133.
  • Disegnato sulla geometria della GS. Non è un universale adattato: barra e morsetto sono specifici per questo manubrio.
  • Finitura nera. Verniciata a polvere, la versione che il produttore mantiene a catalogo.
  • Prodotto in Australia. Barkbusters è un marchio di Rideworx Pty Ltd, che produce paramani dal 1984.
Who is it recommended for

A chi ha una BMW R1300GS o R1300GS Adventure dal 2024 con il pacchetto Enduro Pro, cioè con gli indicatori già spostati fuori dai paramani.

A chi usa la GS in fuoristrada o in viaggio e vuole una protezione vera della leva, potendo scegliere fra quattro serie di plastiche.

Non è la scelta giusta se i paramani di serie hanno la freccia ambra integrata: in quel caso serve il BHG-133, che comprende le luci sostitutive.

Assembly and documents

Le istruzioni ufficiali INS-BHG-124 sono allegate a questa scheda.

  1. Verifica che la moto abbia il pacchetto Enduro Pro, cioè gli indicatori fuori dai paramani. In caso contrario serve il BHG-133.
  2. Rimuovi i paramani originali.
  3. Monta il morsetto sulla sezione dritta del manubrio, senza serrare a fondo.
  4. Fissa la barra in alluminio all estremità del manubrio e al morsetto, poi portala in posizione.
  5. Monta le plastiche che hai scelto, allinea tutto e serra.
  6. Verifica il funzionamento di gas, freno anteriore, frizione e interruttore di arresto, e che lo sterzo giri liberamente da fondo a fondo. Ricontrolla il serraggio dopo i primi 50 km.

Frenafiletti di media resistenza su tutti i fissaggi. Il produttore considera il montaggio dei paramani un intervento rilevante per la sicurezza, da affidare a un tecnico se non hai dimestichezza.

Manufacturer

Barkbusters è un marchio di Rideworx Pty Ltd, azienda australiana che progetta e produce paramani per moto dal 1984.

I kit bike-specific sono disegnati sulla geometria del manubrio di una moto precisa, e il produttore arriva a distinguere due allestimenti della stessa moto quando cambiano le condizioni di montaggio: è esattamente il caso della R1300GS, che ha due codici diversi a seconda di dove stanno le frecce.

Before ordering: check the standard handguards

Before ordering: check the standard handguards

For the R1300GS, there are two different kits. This one is for motorcycles with the Enduro Pro package, where the turn signals are already outside the handguards. If the amber turn signal is integrated into the stock handguard instead, you need the BHG-133, which includes the replacement lights.

Real protection, not just wind

Real protection, not just wind

The original GS handguards are designed primarily for wind protection. This kit has two mounting points and is made of heat-treated aluminum: Barkbusters states that this configuration is designed for impact protection, meaning to protect the lever in a fall.

Four plastics to choose from

Four plastics to choose from

The plastics are purchased separately, and here the manufacturer lists four: JET, VPS, STORM, and CARBON. That’s one more than on the BHG-133, where CARBON isn’t listed. And you can change them over the years without altering the structure.

Drawn on the GS handlebar

Drawn on the GS handlebar

It is not a modified universal kit: the bar and clamp are designed for the geometry of the R1300GS handlebar in its original factory configuration. On an aftermarket handlebar, the fitment must be checked before purchase.

FAQs

For more information, see our FAQ of frequently asked questions.

How do I know whether I need this one or the BHG-133?

Check your motorcycle's stock handguards. If the amber turn signal is NOT inside the handguard because the motorcycle has the Enduro Pro package, which relocates it elsewhere, you need this BHG-124. If the turn signal is integrated into the handguard, you need the BHG-133, which includes the replacement lights.

What is the Enduro Pro package?

It is an optional BMW package for the R1300GS that, among other things, moves the turn signals outside the handguards. This is precisely the condition the manufacturer states for the BHG-124: without the turn signals inside the handguard, the structure can be installed without interference.

I have the amber light in the handguard: can I still install this kit?

Not as it is. You have two options: purchase the BHG-133, which includes replacement sequential LED turn signals, or have BMW install the Enduro Pro package, which relocates the indicators and makes this kit compatible. The first option is almost always the simplest.

Are the protective plastic parts included?

No. The BHG-124 is only the mounting structure: aluminum bars, clamps, and hardware. The plastic components are selected and purchased separately.

What plastics can I install on it?

Four series: JET with a compact profile, VPS with an adjustable deflector, STORM with extended coverage, and CARBON in fiber. EGO plastics are not compatible.

Are the LED arrows included?

No, and they are not needed: this kit is intended for motorcycles where the turn signals are already outside the handguards. The lights are included in the BHG-133 instead, designed for GS models that have the amber turn signal integrated into the stock handguard.

Does it also work on the R1300GS Adventure?

Yes, the manufacturer lists both the R1300GS and the R1300GS Adventure from 2024 onward. The same condition always applies to the turn signal configuration.

What’s the difference compared with the aluminum version?

Only the appearance differs: the structure, compatibility, and durability are identical. This is the black powder-coated version; the other is natural aluminum and remains lighter. The black one is the version the manufacturer keeps in its catalog.

Does it protect the lever in a fall?

Yes. It has two mounting points, and the manufacturer states that the aluminum heat treatment is intended to add strength and impact protection. That is the difference compared with the original BMW hand guards, which are designed primarily for wind protection.

My model is listed, but the year isn’t: will it still fit?

The manufacturer states compatibility from 2024 onward. We do not extend the range by inference: if your year is not included, contact us with the chassis number and trim level, and we will verify it before ordering.

What will I find in the package?

The two black-painted aluminum bars, the clamps, and all mounting hardware. No protective plastic and no arrow.

I installed an aftermarket handlebar: does it fit the same way?

The manufacturer declares compatibility with motorcycles in their original factory configuration. On an aftermarket handlebar, the diameter and geometry change, so the fitment must be checked on a case-by-case basis before purchase.
