They don't come with the heel/toe, but yes! I wish mine had that feature.
 
My R18C came with foot boards and heel & toe shifters. The heel shift peg was so small I missed it most of the time. I converted to foot pegs and a toe shifter only and am much happier.

I'm keeping all the parts together as a kit in case someone wants all the pieces or I decide to go back to foot boards. Thanks anyway.

You can always buy the heel shifter from a BMW dealer. The shifter parts I had to order from BMW only took about 5 weeks.

Interesting, good to know. Thank you
Then I will just get it as it is and if I want to add it later I will
 
My R18 FE 2021 came with a heel/toe shifter and boards . Never used this setup before. Easy to adapt to. The pegs are small and so had to change to Wunderlich larger pegs. Size 11 boots dictated the need for the h/toe setup.

Darn lucky you. I would think the boards would allow movement of your feet vs pegs.
 
I added the spacer on the rear shift peg so I could find it with my size 10.5 boots. You may want to consider something like this.

I have the footboards and heel/ toe shifter on mine and love it. I did change the position of them from the factory setup though which made it even better imo.
