FAQs

What material is the WRS Windscreen made from?

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

Will this windscreen fit my BMW R 1200 GS?

This windscreen is specifically designed for BMW R 1200 GS models from the 2004 to 2012 model years.

How does this windscreen reduce turbulence?

It is shaped and angled to deflect wind away from the rider's torso, shoulders, and helmet, thereby minimizing disruptive air currents and buffeting.

Is the smoke tint dark enough to block sunlight?

The smoke tint provides a moderate level of tint to help reduce glare. It is designed to enhance visibility while offering some sun protection, but it is not intended as a full replacement for sunglasses.

Do I need special tools for installation?

Basic hand tools are typically sufficient for installation. However, it is recommended to refer to your motorcycle's service manual or consult a professional if you are inexperienced with motorcycle parts installation.

How should I clean the windscreen?

Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild soap solution or a cleaner specifically designed for acrylic or plastic surfaces. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a clean, soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or pads.

Troubleshooting

Windscreen rattles after installation.

Check that all mounting hardware is securely tightened. Ensure no components are loose or misaligned. Re-verify that the correct hardware is being used for your specific R 1200 GS model year.

Reduced visibility through the smoke tint.

Ensure the windscreen is clean. If visibility is still an issue in low light conditions, consider if the smoke tint is suitable for your primary riding environment. Adjusting riding posture might also help.

Difficulty aligning mounting holes.

Loosen all mounting bolts slightly, align the holes, and then gradually tighten them. Minor adjustments to the windscreen's position might be necessary. Ensure no obstructions are present.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This windscreen is specifically designed for the BMW R 1200 GS models manufactured between 2004 and 2012.

Setup: Installation typically involves removing the original windscreen and mounting the WRS windscreen using the bike's existing mounting points or provided hardware. It is recommended to consult your motorcycle's service manual or seek professional assistance if you are unsure about the installation process. Ensure all bolts are securely tightened, but avoid over-tightening, which could damage the plexiglass.

Care: To maintain the clarity and longevity of the windscreen, clean it regularly. Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap or a dedicated plastic cleaner. Avoid abrasive materials, harsh chemicals, or high-pressure washers, as these can scratch or damage the PMMA plexiglass surface.
