Kevin,
I just ordered some from Chicago BMW. They are 20% off, which means they are about $47, plus maybe $5 for shipping (I am ordering some other stuff, too).
So if your dealer gives you are hard time, you can get them cheaper from Chicago BMW without the attitude. Just a suggestion.
GS handguards

Kevin - you dealer is correct. It is impossible to install GS handguards on the Roadster. But if it was possible, it would look like this!

Please ignore the K12 mirrors in that picture, that is not possible either!
In reality, it is an easy installation, requiring at most, an adjustment of the banjo fitting as described or the easy way, a slight trimming of the material for some clearance. Some don't have to do either. Go for it.
