Product Information
Full details
This WRS Windscreen is designed for BMW R 1200 R models from 2006-2014, offering riders enhanced comfort and a refined aesthetic. Its primary benefit is the significant reduction in wind turbulence around the shoulders and helmet, leading to a more relaxed ride. A potential consideration is that while it improves aerodynamics, individual rider height and riding position may affect the optimal protection level.

FAQs
Is mounting hardware included with the WRS windscreen?
Typically, this windscreen is designed to utilize the original mounting hardware from your BMW R 1200 R. Please check the product listing or contact support if hardware is specified as included or missing.
Will this windscreen fit my 2015 BMW R 1200 R?
No, this specific WRS windscreen is designed for models manufactured between 2006 and 2014. Later model years may have different mounting configurations.
How do I clean the smoke-tinted windscreen?
Clean the smoke-tinted windscreen using the same method as the clear version: a soft, damp cloth with mild soap and water, followed by drying with a microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Can I install this windscreen myself?
Yes, installation is generally straightforward for riders with basic mechanical knowledge, utilizing existing mounting points. However, if you are uncomfortable with the process, professional installation is recommended.
What is the height of this windscreen?
The windscreen measures 34 cm (approximately 13-3/8 inches) in height.
Does the windscreen eliminate all wind noise?
The windscreen significantly reduces turbulence and wind pressure, which can lower noise levels and improve comfort. However, it does not eliminate all wind noise, as some noise is inherent to riding a motorcycle at speed.
Troubleshooting
Windscreen vibrates excessively
Check that all mounting bolts are securely tightened. Ensure no foreign objects are caught between the windscreen and the mounting points. Verify that the correct mounting hardware is being used.
Windscreen does not fit flush
Confirm that you have the correct model year R 1200 R windscreen. Ensure the motorcycle's mounting points are clean and free of obstructions. Minor adjustments might be needed due to variations in bike production; consult a professional if unsure.
Clouding or hazing after cleaning
You may have used an abrasive cleaner or cloth. Use only mild soap solutions and soft microfiber cloths for cleaning. For persistent hazing, consider using a dedicated plastic polish designed for automotive windscreens.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility:
This WRS windscreen is specifically designed for the BMW R 1200 R models manufactured between 2006 and 2014. Ensure your motorcycle model and year match this specification before installation.
Setup:
Installation typically involves removing the original windscreen and using the existing mounting points and hardware. It is recommended to refer to your motorcycle's service manual or consult a professional if you are unfamiliar with windscreen replacement. Ensure all mounting bolts are securely fastened but do not overtighten, which could damage the plexiglass or mounting brackets.
Care:
Clean the windscreen regularly using a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive soap or a dedicated plastic cleaner. Avoid using paper towels, harsh chemicals, or abrasive cleaners, as these can scratch the surface. For stubborn dirt or insect residue, soak the area with warm, soapy water before gently wiping clean. Dry with a soft microfiber cloth.
