The mirror adapters are costly, but well worth the value of the safety they add to the bike by increasing the field of vision in my rear view. The description says they “... are threaded to accept a M10 x 1.5 mirror stud. The 10mm size is fairly common and you can mount a variety of mirrors, including the BMW mirrors for the R1200 GS for example.” I purchased the mirrors themselves from a third party that said they were 10mm studs, but they fit very tightly, allowing only a few turns to thread in, and would not seat all the way down. Nevertheless, they are secure enough and I am going to live with it, not knowing if the sizing issue is with the adapter or the mirrors. I suspect it’s probably an issue on the cheap mirrors. As usual I am very happy with the Wunderlich quality.

$80 for two simple parts is insane, but they are well made and did the trick. Needed them to fit supplemental mirrors on my 2010 RT
Awesome necessary product

Without this product it would be difficult to install accessory mirrors, which are very much needed, to the 2010-2012 R1200RT. These adapters make the process seamless and they appear as though they were a stock item, which they should have been.

The mount is high quality construction and installation is very straightforward.

A year ago I purchased mirros P/N 8410053 for a 2005 R1200RT. They fit well and provided a greater rear view. This year I exchanged the bike for a 2011 model. Eager to salvage the mirrors and not generate extra cost buying new mirrors I went back to Wunderlich. The web site advises of the following for these mirrors: R1200 RT 2010 - 2013: These mirrors will not fit your bike however, we do have an option that will. For our mirror solution for the 2010 - 2013 R1200 RT, please see the Mirror Adapter under the Related Products tab for more information. That link will explain the particulars and direct you to the correct parts. I went to the "Related Parts" tab which advises teh following: Important Note: There are two versions of these adapters available. The difference is in the size of the bolts used to attach the adapters. Please order based on the following information: �5mm: Both left and right sides an all 2010 through 2012 model year R1200 RT (up to 08/2012 production) and in some cases the clutch side perch on 2013 model. (read on if your bike is a 2013) Important ordering information: If you want to install mirrors on both sides of your 2010 or later R1200 RT, you will need the following: � Two of either the 5mm or 6mm mirror adapters, or one of each depending on the model year of your bike. Based on the web site it appears the mirrors can be used with the adapters. However, I had to return the adapters as their perch thread diameter is bigger than the stem thread diameter of the mirror P/N 8410053. Therefore buyers be aware. The web site explanation is misleading.

After a 12500 mile 7 week trip on my 2012 RT and struggling with rear vision I found the answer at Wunderlich. Bought the adapter and mirror and found out what I was missing. Just got back from a week of riding in the mountains of NC and recommended these to 2 other RT riders, who are probably ordering theirs right now. Well done.

I used the adapter as a Ram mount for my radar detector. Works great. Should've bought 2 so I could "Ram" the other side.
Worthwhile addition for a late model BMW RT.

Adaptor would have rated five stars if it was the same width as the BMW part it replaces. Could not be easier to fit. The mirror I mounted was, I believe, from an R1200R which came with it\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s own threaded fittings compatible with the adaptor. No vibration issues and a worthwhile addition to the RT. Wunderlich provided a very efficient service.

These replace the existing covers, however, they are a bit on the narrow side. Works as advertised but esthetically not uniform with the rest of the holder. Works as advertised with the Flash Mirrors.

The adaptors are excellent, easy to fit and works as an excellent holding bracket for the Flash mirrors on my RT which has enhanced the rear view, leaving the RT mirrors to observe the bikes blind spots
