Product Information
Full details
This WRS Windscreen is designed for BMW R 1200 RT ABS models from 2014-2019, offering enhanced rider protection and comfort on longer journeys. Its key benefit is the significant reduction of helmet turbulence and air pressure on the shoulders. A potential consideration is its larger size, which is optimized for touring but may be more than some riders prefer for shorter trips or warmer weather.

FAQs
Will this windscreen fit my 2015 BMW R 1200 RT?
Yes, this WRS Windscreen is designed to fit BMW R 1200 RT ABS models from 2014 to 2019, including your 2015 model.
How much taller is this windscreen compared to the original?
This touring version is approximately 4cm taller than the original windscreen.
Can I use this windscreen in the summer?
While designed for maximum coverage and ideal for colder periods, it can be used year-round. However, its larger size might offer less airflow than desired for some riders during very hot weather.
What material is the windscreen made of?
The windscreen is made from high-quality PMMA plexiglass, which is 5mm thick.
Will this windscreen eliminate all wind noise?
This windscreen is designed to significantly reduce helmet turbulence and air pressure, leading to a quieter and more comfortable ride. However, complete elimination of wind noise is dependent on various factors including rider height, helmet type, and riding speed.
Is professional installation recommended?
While installation can be done by the user, professional installation is recommended if you are not experienced with motorcycle part replacement to ensure correct and secure fitting.
Troubleshooting
Windscreen vibrates excessively at speed.
Check that all mounting bolts and fasteners are securely tightened. Ensure the windscreen is correctly seated in its mounts. If the issue persists, verify that no interfering components are causing resonance.
Reduced visibility through the windscreen.
Ensure the windscreen is clean. If the issue is due to scratches or damage, consider replacement. Always clean the inside and outside surfaces before riding.
Difficulty aligning mounting holes during installation.
Loosen existing mounting hardware slightly to allow for adjustment. Ensure the windscreen is properly aligned with the mounting brackets before tightening all fasteners. Some minor adjustments might be needed on the bike's brackets themselves.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This windscreen is specifically designed for the BMW R 1200 RT ABS models manufactured between 2014 and 2019. Ensure your motorcycle model and year match the product specifications before installation.
Setup: Installation typically involves removing the original windscreen and carefully mounting the WRS windscreen using the original mounting points. It is recommended to consult your motorcycle's service manual or seek professional assistance if you are not comfortable with disassembly and reassembly of motorcycle parts. Ensure all fasteners are securely tightened but avoid over-tightening, which can damage the mounting hardware or the windscreen.
Care: Clean the windscreen regularly with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for motorcycle windscreens or plastic. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive pads, or paper towels, as these can scratch the surface. For stubborn dirt or insect residue, allow the cleaner to soak for a short period before gently wiping it away. Never clean a hot windscreen; allow it to cool down first.
