DESCRIPTION OF THE MUDSLING FOR THE R1200GS LC 2013 to 2018 ,R1200 Adv. LC 2014 to 2018
The MudSling® offers the ultimate level of protection.
Machineart, designers of specialized products for BMW motorcycles, introduce an all new MudSling® rear mudguard for the 2013 onwards liquid cooled (LC) R1200GS and R1200Adventure models.
BMW have provided a minimal rear mudguard for the liquid cooled models but it is insufficiently long and wide to capture mud and water spray thrown forward onto the suspension and to the sides onto riders legs. This new MudSling® increases the surface area to each side by up to 3, and downwards by a full 7 to cover and protect the outside of the Paralever arm.
FEATURES
The MudSling® LC provides 220% more surface area than the portion of the stock mudguard that extends down between the shock and tyre. It is 185% wider as it covers around the sides to reduce splash forward. The right side is wider than the left because of Paralever movement clearance limitations on the left side.
The MudSling® LC is injection moulded in resilient polypropylene with a fine texture matching other plastic part surfaces on the GS. It is precisely shaped to engage the bottom of the existing fender and fit tightly against the frame. As of this date the MudSling® LC fits with BMW stock pannier mounts as well as those of Touratech Zega Pro, and Jesse.
Comparisons show that the MudSling® is thicker, stronger AND gives more coverage than any similar product!
Designed to keep the muck that the rear wheel throws up off you and the rear of the bike, the MudSling® is a top quality product:
It offers great protection for the rear shock, riders legs and Paralever arm !
The protection is so good that the stock shock guard is no longer needed
More features:
• Manufactured from 3mm thick injection moulded polypropylene which is very resilient.
• Quality textured finished matches the OE finish.
• Easily fitted securely in seconds
The wide design of the MudSling also keeps the under seat area cleaner
Includes full fitting instructions and relevant fittings
NOTE: The Mudsling LC is suitable for use on bikes with lowered suspension.
Fits:
R1200GS LC 2013 to 2018 (including factory lowered versions)
R1200 Adv. LC 2014 to 2018 (including factory lowered versions)
So fits ALL years of the liquid cooled R1200GS and Adventure from 2013 to 2018 INCLUDING factory lowered versions. Fits with or without ESA. Fits GS LC with all tyre including Conti TKC80's but clearance with the same tyres is very tight on the Adventure LC.
DESCRIPTION OF THE AVANT FOR THE R1200GS LC 2013 to 2018 ,R1200 Adv. LC 2014 to 2018
• EASY, NO DRILL INSTALLATION !
• ADDS 5.5 TO THE LENGTH
• ADDS 2 TO THE WIDTH
• WIDE BUT LOOKS SLIM
This patent pending design installs with two self-locking screw clamps that grip the fender underside for a secure fit WITH NO DRILLING, while the angled back wings give you wide coverage without looking wide.
Injection moulded in resilient polypropylene, it EXACTLY MATCHES the texture of the original mudguard.
The front fender of the 2013 R1200GS_LC is both shorter and pointier at its trailing edge than the previous generation GS making the exposed painted surface of the front engine case even more vulnerable to stone damage.
The Avant reduces clean-up maintenance and helps keep the surrounding parts looking new for longer.
“Not only is it simpler to install, it looks beautifully integrated with the styling of the new GS and is transferable to another bike without leaving disfiguring holes behind, a benefit for resale value”. The Avant Fender Extender fits over the top of the fender and securely engages the tip of the stock GS LC front mudguard with a unique moulded-in shoe. Two compression clamps grip the underside of the GS LC front mudguard on both sides, drawn tight with T25 Torx Head screws. The characteristic flared wing shape widens the splash coverage area without looking wide.
The fitment of the Avant with sump guards and Crud Catchers.
The Avant Fender extender will fit with all BMW and Touratech sump guards except with the BMW 'Enduro' sump guard when fitted to the Adventure model (but it is fine on the standard R1200GS LC model). The Avant will not fit with our Crud catchers are either the standard GS LC or Adventure LC.
Fits:
R1200GS LC 2013 to 2018
R1200 Adv. LC 2014 to 2018
FITTING THE AVANT WITH SUMP GUARDS (SKID PLATES)
1. With Cymarc Crud catcher - the two items basically do the same job and fitted together the clearance is very tight - not advised.
2. The Avant fits the 1200 GS LC with either BMW’s standard or optional Enduro skid plates.
3. The Avant also fits the 2014 GSA LC with BMW’s standard skid plate, but does not comfortably fit the GSA LC with the optional Enduro Skid Plate part #77148533747. The reason is that the front end caster angle was changed on the GSA, reducing clearance with the Enduro plate.
4. Two aftermarket skid plates that fit properly with the Avant on the GSA LC are made by Wunderlich and Touratech. Both do not extend as far forward of the engine centreline as does the BMW Enduro plate, leaving sufficient room for the Avant.

DESCRIPTION OF THE XHEADS FOR THE R1200GS LC 2013 to 2018 ,R1200 Adv. LC 2014 to 2018
The MachineArt X-Heads LC are exclusively distributed in Europe by Nippy Normans.
Machine Art X-Head cylinder head guards for 1200 LC models.
X-Heads LC cylinder guards are designed to 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 off-road riding the X-Heads LC complement BMW’s crash bars to protect heads from rocks and strike angles onto terrain that can get past the bars. The X-Heads LC are styled to complement the Liquid-Cooled models and are the best choice for riders who do not like the look of crash bars.
The X-Heads LC design benefits from a SuperTough nylon polymer successfully proven in use with the X-Head models.
With its blend of high impact strength, temperature and UV stabilization, the injection moulded shell is designed to be slightly ductile in impact to prevent breakage. On the inside of the shell is a thick thermoplastic rubber liner that rests against the face of the cylinder to aid in dissipating impact force while preventing hard contact.
The X-Heads LC are designed to protect both the valve and spark plug covers. If a bike is dropped at speed, any material will wear at the point of contact, but nylon will not break or puncture. Even a driveway drop will cause a bike to roll onto the face of the valve cover and X-Head’s wide shape helps to protect more area than other head covers
Includes full fitting instructions and relevant fittings (Each side mounts via 2 stainless steel M5 T25 Torx Head fasteners and one existing T50 bolt)
Fits:
R1200GS LC 2013 to 2018
R1200 Adv. LC 2014 to 2018
FITMENT WITH DIFFERENT MAKES OF ENGINE BARS
Touratech provide sufficient room on their bars as do the BMW OEM bars. However Wunderlich and SW Motech do not. In order to install X-Heads, the bars should be at least loosened to move them away enough to slip the X-Heads into position. This also applies when fitting Xheads to the 2017 on model R1200GS LC - loosen or remove the engine bars, fit the X Heads and then refit the engine bars, total safety for the engine.
