DEFENSA Expedition Hand Guards, black, for BMW R1250GS/ R1250GS Adventure/ R1200GS (LC)/ R1200

Whether off-road or touring - the Touratech Defensa offers reliable protection for handlebar controls and hands, ensuring that a small mishap doesn't turn into a big problem.
With the Defensa, Touratech has developed an extra-robust protector for handlebar controls and hands. The construction made from high-strength aircraft aluminum is precisely tailored to your motorcycle model.

Thanks to the "Defensa System," the protector offers interesting variation options. Whether pure protection bars or a wider protector with an extra attachment spoiler…

Defensa hand protectors - for a particularly wide range of applications.
The handlebar controls are among the most vulnerable components of a motorcycle. The solid protector reliably protects the levers from damage. The closed protectors have a bar that supports itself near the clamp blocks and at the end of the handlebar, completely surrounding the controls. This principle has proven itself under the toughest conditions on rally motorcycles.

The system consists of two bolted main components and a mounting kit. There is always enough space behind the protector for the levers to move freely. The annoying contact, especially of the clutch lever, with the protector, as known from universal products, is a thing of the past with the Defensa.

The components of the Defensa are made from a high-strength, forged aluminum alloy, as proven in aircraft construction. With a thickness of 14 millimeters, the dimensions have been generously chosen without losing sight of the weight issue. Precision in manufacturing ensures excellent dimensional accuracy and thus a perfect fit.

Additionally, forging, compared to cast or machined aluminum, provides an even stronger and more resilient structure.

Thanks to the model-specific adaptation, stress-free installation is guaranteed, as is full handlebar rotation.

Easy adaptation for on- and off-road use
For pure off-road use, the Defensa "Pure" variant is recommended, where only the bar is mounted. For mixed use, there is the Defensa "Expedition," which is equipped with a plastic wind deflector.

The plastic shell is slid over the main bar and clamped at the connection of the two aluminum components, ensuring a precise and secure fit. Those who need even more weather protection can additionally mount the separately available "Extension" spoiler.
Of course, the Defensa Expedition can be easily converted back to Pure.

Material: forged aluminum, anodized and powder-coated
