Extended Product Information

FAQs

What material is the WRS Windscreen made from?

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

Will this windscreen fit my 2007 BMW R 1150 R?

This specific windscreen is designed for BMW R 1150 R models from 2001-2006. Compatibility with other model years is not guaranteed and may require modifications.

How much does this windscreen reduce wind noise?

It significantly reduces turbulence around the helmet and shoulders, which in turn lowers wind noise and buffeting, leading to a quieter and more comfortable ride.

Is installation difficult?

Installation is generally straightforward and can typically be done with basic tools. Specific instructions are usually provided with the product.

Can I clean the windscreen with regular car wash soap?

It is recommended to use a mild soap solution specifically designed for plastics or a gentle household cleaner. Avoid abrasive chemicals or tools that could scratch the surface.

What is the height of this windscreen?

This particular model is 30 cm (approximately 11-3/4 inches) in height.

Does the smoke tint affect nighttime visibility?

The smoke tint is designed to reduce glare during the day. While it may slightly reduce visibility in very low light conditions, it is generally considered safe for nighttime riding by most users when kept clean.

Troubleshooting

Windscreen vibrates excessively at speed.

Check that all mounting bolts are securely tightened. Ensure no foreign objects are caught between the windscreen and the fairing. Verify that the mounting brackets are not damaged or bent.

Windscreen does not align perfectly with mounting holes.

Loosen all mounting bolts slightly, align the windscreen, and then gradually tighten the bolts in an alternating pattern. If misalignment persists, check for frame damage or consult the manufacturer's detailed installation guide.

Reduced visibility through the smoke tint.

This is a characteristic of the smoke tint. Ensure the windscreen is clean. For very low light conditions or heavy fog, consider temporarily removing the windscreen if absolutely necessary, though it is designed for general riding conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation typically involves removing the original windscreen and mounting the WRS windscreen using the provided hardware or existing mounting points. Ensure all bolts are securely fastened but avoid overtightening to prevent damage to the plexiglass. Refer to the specific installation instructions included with the product for detailed steps.

Compatibility: This windscreen is specifically designed for the BMW R 1150 R models manufactured between 2001 and 2006. While it is intended to be a direct fit, slight variations in mounting hardware or fairing components across different production runs might necessitate minor adjustments. Always confirm fitment before purchase.

Care: To maintain clarity and longevity, clean the windscreen regularly. Use a soft, damp microfiber cloth and a mild soap solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners, paper towels, or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch or damage the PMMA plexiglass surface. For stubborn grime, a dedicated plastic cleaner can be used.
