No, it's just like the R1200RS.
Not sure why the RS didn't get the little handle like the GS and XR.

Changes on the 1250 I can think of.
Engine
TFT
Nose fairing with LED headlights.
Exhaust sounds different.

The bumps on the back side of the shield where the mounting screws pass through are deeper.
This pushes the shield out from the fairing about a 1/4". If you look at a 1250 from the side you'll notice a slightly large gap.
Maybe this was done to have more air pass up through the back side of the shield to help the main wind blast collapsing too soon.
I'm not able to feel any difference.
