The RCU Designs Accessory Shelf for the K1200GT (through 2005 models), slightly smaller than the K1200RS, is ideal for mounting a radar detector, GPS unit, a garage door opener or whatever you might think of that will mount on the approximate 4” x 10” surface. The shelf is supported directly over the handlebars using two struts that fasten with two, new handlebar pinch bolts. The cutout gives access to your ignition key. Shelf and brackets are machined from aircraft-quality, aluminum alloy. The shelf is painted in black powder coat for an unbelievably tough and long-lasting finish. Struts and spacers are anodized in a clear, satin finish. Screws and nuts are black, zinc-plated for corrosion resistance. The shelf can be easily drilled to mount your accessories or many users have found that adhesive-backed, industrial-strength, hook and hoop material will satisfy their needs. Of course, there are no holes to drill for installation.
