for BMW 2024+ GS; 2025+ GSA, RT, RS & R.
Out of Stock. Production of the new XH-1300 is in process after a long delay. We now expect to have stock available in early to mid October.
X-Head 1300's are designed to protect the Cylinder Heads of your New R1300 model. X-Heads' thick, 2 layer high impact strength molded polymer is the key to their No Break rating. This special material is slightly ductile to absorb the force of impact and prevent damage to your cylinder heads. In between the shell and the cylinder head is a thick thermoplastic rubber liner that aids in dissipating impact force while preventing hard contact. Each side mounts using the supplied bolts with a steel Brace using a T30 Torx screwdriver.X-Head 1300 cover 80% of the face of the head to protect not only the bottom/front initial impact area, but also the mid part of the cylinder head. Even in a stationary drop, inertia can cause a bike to roll partially onto the face of the head before it settles down.
For paved roads and off road courses, X-Head 1300 provide excellent needed protection.
If you ride an R1300 off-road over difficult, rutted and rocky surfaces, X-Head 1300 can be fitted along with BMW crash bars. They are an ideal off-road protection combination because X-Head 1300's fill the vulnerable spaces in-between the crash bars to protect your cylinder heads from rocks and strike angles of terrain that can get past the crash bars.
NOTE: If you install BMW crash bars, 2 spacer washers will be needed per side as shown in the included Installation Instructions. These spacers are included in the Kit.
Touratech, Wunderlich, & SW Motech engine bars also fit properly over the X-Head 1300.
X-Head 1300's protect and look good in the process!
For X-Head 1300 installation, new fasteners are included. After fitting the X-Heads and securing them with each of the 2 screws, you can optionally remove the screws and apply a small drop of Loctite to the threads to assure tightness during use, then re-install the screws.
