The side stand switch on the BMW R1300 GS/GSA is exposed. A stick, a rock, or a piece of trail debris hitting it at the wrong angle can trigger the switch and disable the bike. Miles from help, that's a serious problem.
AltRider designed this guard after seeing too many riders stranded by this exact failure. The dual-point mounting spreads impact force across the frame instead of concentrating it on one spot — it stays in place after repeated hits. The black anodized finish resists corrosion and fits the factory look. The switch itself remains fully functional behind the guard.
Built and designed in Seattle by riders who ride the same terrain you do.
