[James White]

Just fitted a pair on my bike. It's totally eliminated the dreaded buffeting.
It's got to be the best £30.00 I have ever spent legaly!

That's good news James, is that with the standard GS screen and no tobernators?

 

[JohnP]

Yup, same goes for me too. Using them with standard screen. Tested fully on two week touring trip to Germany and can recommend the mod.

 

[Dreamer]

Yup, me too. I'd already got NN big screen, than added Tobinators & winglets.
Winglets make a good difference, especially in 'still' conditions or sheltered lanes - not so noticable in gusty sidewinds ect, for obvious reasons. A bargain at 30 squids and easy to fit (but, boy is that plastic soft! Drill with care!!)

Do these fit a 1100 screen and is there a link to a photo?

 

[Pukmeister]

'Scuse my ignorance, are the winglets from Nippy or BWM ???

 

[Foto John]

Mine don't fit!!!

I bought the BMW 'winglets' last week, but have yet to fit them, due to them coming into contact with the standard screen.
It looks like I'll have to cut or file a part of the screen off. Is this normal? Has anyone else noticed this or have I got something wrong here?

I had to use the dremmel on my Secdem when I fitted teh NN Winglets. They made a huge difference to the wind noise. Only down side is that I have a reduced flow of air throgh the helmet, resulting in my visor misting up more than it used to.

And what are these winglets anyway?

Nothing to do with me ...

... but there is a set here on eBay

Bet they go for more than £30 now.

 

[princec]

Oh, those. Already have them on my 12GSA. Either they don't help one bit or it must be absolutely terrible with them removed!

Yep, I'll second that, (or third or whatever). Standard screen at full height, NN winglets, and pssst... a touratech screen spoiler, visor up at motorway speeds, lovely. Only problem is when I close my visor it gets really stuffy in the helmet! Can't have it all I suppose

Guvi Screen
