FAQs

What material is the WRS Windscreen made from?

The windscreen is constructed from high-quality PMMA plexiglass, known for its durability and optical clarity.

Will this windscreen fit my 2013 BMW R 1200 GS?

No, this specific WRS Windscreen is designed for BMW R 1200 GS models from 2004 to 2012. Later models may require a different windscreen.

How much does this windscreen improve comfort?

It significantly reduces wind turbulence around the shoulders and helmet, leading to a more comfortable ride, especially on longer journeys and at highway speeds.

Is installation difficult?

Installation is generally straightforward for riders with basic mechanical skills, typically involving existing mounting points. Professional installation is recommended if you are unsure.

Does the clear version affect nighttime visibility?

The clear finish is designed to maintain excellent visibility at night. However, as with any windscreen, ensure it is kept clean from road grime and debris.

Can I use aftermarket mounting hardware?

It is recommended to use the original mounting hardware or hardware specifically provided or recommended by WRS for optimal fit and safety.

What is the length of the windscreen?

The windscreen measures 41 cm (approximately 16-1/8 inches) in height.

Troubleshooting

Windscreen rattles after installation.

Ensure all mounting bolts and fasteners are securely tightened. Check that any rubber washers or grommets are in place and in good condition.

Windscreen is not perfectly aligned.

Loosen the mounting bolts slightly, adjust the windscreen to the correct position, and then retighten the bolts evenly. Some minor adjustment of mounting points might be necessary.

Reduced visibility in certain conditions.

Ensure the windscreen is clean. If the issue persists, especially in fog or heavy rain, consider a temporary windshield (if applicable) or riding at reduced speeds.

Noticed new turbulence after installation.

Double-check that the correct model and year of the motorcycle is matched with the windscreen. Verify that the screen is mounted securely and in the intended orientation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This windscreen is specifically designed for the BMW R 1200 GS models manufactured between 2004 and 2012. Always double-check your motorcycle's exact year and model before installation.

Setup: Installation typically involves removing the original windscreen and mounting hardware, then carefully attaching the WRS windscreen using the provided or original mounting points. Ensure all fasteners are securely tightened but avoid overtightening, which could damage the plexiglass.

Care: Clean the windscreen regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents, or paper towels, as these can scratch the surface. For stubborn dirt, a dedicated motorcycle plastic cleaner can be used. Inspect mounting hardware periodically for tightness.
