FAQs

What specific BMW models is this windscreen compatible with?

This WRS Windscreen Caponord is designed exclusively for the BMW R 1200 GS and R 1200 GS Adventure models manufactured between 2006 and 2012.

How does this windscreen improve rider comfort?

It significantly reduces helmet and shoulder turbulence by redirecting airflow higher and smoother over the rider, minimizing wind pressure and noise.

Is installation difficult?

Installation generally uses existing mounting points. While designed for a direct fit, some minor adjustments may be necessary. It's recommended to consult your motorcycle's service manual for detailed fairing component removal and installation.

What material is the windscreen made from?

The windscreen is constructed from high-quality, 4.5 mm thick PMMA plexiglass.

Will this windscreen fit the newer R1200GS models (after 2013)?

No, this specific model is designed only for the 2006-2012 R 1200 GS and Adventure. Compatibility with other model years is not guaranteed.

How should I clean the windscreen?

Clean with a soft microfiber cloth and a mild, non-abrasive plastic cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive materials to prevent scratching.

Does the windscreen come with mounting hardware?

Typically, this windscreen utilizes the motorcycle's original mounting hardware. Please check the product packaging or contact the seller to confirm if any specific hardware is included.

Troubleshooting

Windscreen has minor scuffs or scratches upon arrival.

Inspect the packaging for damage. Contact the retailer or manufacturer with photographic evidence for a resolution, as this may indicate shipping damage or a manufacturing defect.

Difficulty aligning mounting holes during installation.

Loosen the mounting hardware slightly on the motorcycle's fairing brackets before attempting to attach the windscreen. Once the windscreen is loosely in place, gradually tighten all screws. Do not overtighten.

Excessive vibration or looseness after installation.

Ensure all mounting hardware is securely tightened. Check that the windscreen is correctly seated in all mounting points and that no factory brackets are bent or misaligned.

Reduced visibility due to smudges or water spots.

Clean the windscreen thoroughly using the recommended care instructions. Ensure all cleaning agents are fully rinsed off.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

This windscreen is specifically designed for the BMW R 1200 GS and Adventure models produced between 2006 and 2012. Ensure your motorcycle model and year match this specification before attempting installation.

Setup:

Installation typically involves removing the original windscreen and mounting hardware, then attaching the WRS windscreen using the existing or provided mounting points. While designed for a precise fit, minor adjustments might be needed for optimal alignment. Refer to your motorcycle's service manual for detailed instructions on removing and installing fairing components.

Care:

To maintain clarity and prevent damage:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft microfiber cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for motorcycle windscreens or plastics. Avoid harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive pads, which can scratch the surface.
  2. Washing: Gently wash with lukewarm water and a mild soap solution. Rinse thoroughly.
  3. Drying: Pat dry with a clean microfiber cloth or allow to air dry. Do not wipe a dry surface, as this can cause micro-scratches.
  4. Protection: Consider applying a plastic polish or protectant to maintain UV resistance and a smooth finish.
