The best carbon fiber parts for the BMW R1250GS (2019–present) are components made from 100% pre-preg Toray carbon fiber, cured in an autoclave and formed in matched-metal molds — the only construction method that consistently delivers accurate fitment on the GS's complex bodywork and a finish that resists sun-ray yellowing. The upgrades R1250GS riders make most often are engine and valve covers, the front fender, a rear hugger, exhaust heat shields, and heel guards.

- Front fender. A large, highly visible piece that typically sheds a few hundred grams over the stock plastic unit and sharpens the front end
