AltRider BMW R1200GS Potentiometer Guard

Made from 3.175 mm anodized aluminum, the potentiometer guard has three mounting positions to anchor it in place. The unique third (bottom) mounting position creates a firm hold on the throttle body, which means the guard won’t ever shift or snap off.

The AltRider Potentiometer Guard provides strong protection, sleek profile and no interference with leg position.

  • Anodized aluminum construction
  • 3 mount points for superior strength
  • Includes Loctite (except on international orders)
  • Height: 1 inch
  • Width: 4 inches
  • Depth: 4 inches
  • Weight: 0.17 lbs

AltRider BMW R1200GS Potentiometer Guard 4.7 5 12 12
Necessary protection... I picked up the guard after loosing a day's riding helping a friend get his GS home following a gravel road tip-over that busted his potentiometer. Simple 10 minute install. The usual Altrider quality fit and finish. And, the peace of mind knowing that an easily broken "dead-stop" part is now well protected. A good purchase that I highly recommend. June 10, 2013
Hopefully will never need it...but economic and looks great For the price, I can't see why you wouldn't want this kind of essential protection. Well fabricated and the finish is flawless...only a 10 minute or less install too so no lost ride time. April 30, 2013
Don't want damage to my potentiometer to leave me stranded. Its nice having a peace of mind knowing i am doing the best to protect my potentiometer on my R1200GS. Im told if it goes, im stuck, so this is a small measure to protect this important part of my engine. Like all Altrider products, its great construction and looks good.... April 8, 2013
Excellent protection for Potentiometer Altrider Poentiometer guard for the Bmw R1200 GSA is a well made, easy to install guard that is well worth the money especially if you take your machine offroad. April 2, 2013
Riding Position and Potential Interferance The product quality and ease of installation is amazing and I have no doubt that it would do its intended purpose without a problem but, as other riders have reported, once installed, I end hitting my shin against it on my normal riding position... So, since not every rider has reported that interference, maybe it just affects a select few riders with "weird" riding positions I am 5' 11" for reference December 10, 2012
Excellent protection for a critical GS component The Altrider Potentiometer guard looks pretty slick, conforms well to the styling of the R1200 series bikes, and gives excellent protection to the throttle position sensor. I occasionally bump it with my boot, but was probably doing that to the TPS, prior to installing the guard. Installation is a five minute job, with clear directions provided. July 9, 2012
solid protector Looks good and seems solid. I haven't fallen on it to determine how good a protector it is. The only problem with it is that I tend to hit my shin on it and when not wearing high boots, this can be annoying. June 4, 2012
AltRider BMW R1200GS Potentiometer Guard Very well designed, perfect fit. Does exactly what it needs to do and looks good as well. Being in OZ the freight charges were quite high for a small item such as this but otherwise very happy May 14, 2012
