Product Information

Full details

This WRS windscreen, designed for BMW R 1200 GS models from 2004-2012, is for riders seeking improved comfort and a more refined riding experience. Its key benefit is the significant reduction in wind turbulence around the shoulders and helmet, leading to less fatigue on longer journeys. A potential consideration is that aftermarket fitment may require careful alignment to ensure perfect integration with the bike's aesthetics.

FAQs

Will this windscreen fit my 2015 BMW R 1200 GS?

No, this WRS windscreen is specifically designed for BMW R 1200 GS models from 2004 to 2012. Compatibility with other model years is not guaranteed.

How much does this windscreen reduce wind noise?

The windscreen is designed to reduce turbulence around the shoulders and helmet, which in turn can lower wind noise and buffeting. The exact reduction varies based on rider height, riding position, and speed.

What material is the windscreen made of?

The windscreen is made from high-quality PMMA plexiglass.

Is installation difficult?

Installation typically involves basic tools and follows the same mounting points as the original windscreen. However, if you are not mechanically inclined, professional installation is recommended for a perfect fit.

Does it come with mounting hardware?

The product description implies it fits perfectly, suggesting it uses existing mounting points or includes necessary hardware. Please refer to the specific product listing details for confirmation on included hardware.

Can I polish out scratches on the windscreen?

Minor surface scuffs can sometimes be polished out using specialized plastic polish. However, deep scratches are difficult to remove completely from PMMA plexiglass without professional refinishing.

What is the height of this windscreen?

This windscreen has a height of 41 cm (approximately 16-1/8 inches).

Troubleshooting

Windscreen does not fit properly.

Double-check that your motorcycle model and year match the WRS windscreen's specifications (BMW R 1200 GS 2004-2012). Ensure no frame modifications or aftermarket fairing parts are interfering with the fitment.

Excessive vibration after installation.

Verify that all mounting bolts are securely tightened. Ensure any rubber washers or grommets are correctly in place to absorb vibration. If vibration persists, consult a professional mechanic.

Screen appears cloudy or scratched.

The screen may have been cleaned with abrasive materials. Use only soft cloths and mild, non-abrasive cleaners designed for plastics. Scratches on PMMA are difficult to remove without professional polishing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This windscreen is specifically designed for the BMW R 1200 GS models produced between 2004 and 2012. Ensure your motorcycle model and year match these specifications before installation.

Setup: Installation typically involves removing the original windscreen and mounting the WRS windscreen using the existing hardware or provided mounting kit. It is recommended to consult your motorcycle's service manual or seek professional assistance if you are not comfortable with the process. Ensure all mounting points are secure but avoid over-tightening, which could damage the plastic.

Care: To maintain the clarity and appearance of the PMMA plexiglass, clean the windscreen regularly. Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners, paper towels, or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch or cloud the surface. For stubborn grime, a dedicated plastic cleaner can be used following the product's instructions.
