DescriptionThe whole story▼

A heat shield does two jobs: it keeps radiated heat off a pannier, a boot or a leg, and it protects the silencer body from what the road throws at it. On the R 1300 GS Akrapovic builds it in two carbon halves, upper and lower, each with its own part number.

Key Features

  • Upper carbon heat shield for the BMW R 1300 GS
  • Model years 2023 to 2026
  • The lower half, P-HSB13SO2D, is a separate article at the same price
  • An OEM BMW part built by Akrapovic
  • Carbon fibre construction

Two heat shields in the range

This shop already carries P-HSB13SO1, a single-piece carbon heat shield for the same motorcycle. This article and its lower counterpart are the two-piece version. They are different parts, not two names for one thing — before ordering, check which shield the silencer on your bike is built for.

Akrapovic does not publish which system each shield belongs to. If you are unsure, tell us which slip-on is fitted and we will check it against Akrapovic's fitting data before anything ships.

Carbon on a heat shield

Carbon is a curious choice for something whose job is heat. It works because the shield is a barrier rather than a heat sink: it blocks radiation and lets air move behind it. Akrapovic has used carbon for shields across its range for years, and the material is stated for this article rather than inferred.

What is not published

No description, no photograph, no fitting instruction. The number, the material, the position, the motorcycle and the years come from Akrapovic's current price file, and that is the full extent of what is asserted here.

The picture on this page

A data card rather than a product shot, because Akrapovic publishes no image of P-HSB13SO2U.
