want to change screen on my 2006 1200gs as getting a bit of buffeting & loud wind noise
anybody got any recomdations :nenau
 
$115.00
Plus carriage to USA destination.
Plus carriage to UK.
Plus import duty if you're unlucky.
plus carrier's admin fee even if you're lucky.

About £130.00

Three weeks wait.

Well worth it in my IMO but I am sure that most would rather spend that sort of money on a fink gold plated egg timer from Touratech.

If you've got friends or relatives in US go for it.
 
Just about to fit a wunderlich screen I got with the bike and test it out. It's massive compared to the stock....
 
For £350 quid you can have my unwanted and unused just delivered Cee Baileys screen tallest and widest from the sportouring.com website.
 
Small screen = no buffeting. £69.00

Wind protection is fine. The screen adjusts just like the stock screen, so should suit most riders (I'm 6'1"). This is miles better than the vibrating, buffeting blurred vision inducing stock screen which is a disgrace, and MRA vario screen I've also tried (better than the stock screen but even better if the upper section is removed). £69.00 for the NN screen, it's a bargain, and it works!!! I won't be fitting the stock screen, ever.
 
Any body got an idea how much a GSA screen & bar with any other fittings is to buy ?
:thumb2

I seem to remember it came to just short of £320 for all the screen bits and winglets. Mine's an 08 though and Rainbow did tell me that there's more common bits between GS and GSA now so probably have to budget for a few quid more if it's an earlier model. I went for a smoked screen, not sure if there's any difference in cost from clear?

One thing I did notice however, I got the screen swapped and then found a couple of pieces missing for the winglets so had to ride back up to Rainbow to pick them up. I might have been imagining it but it felt like there was more wind around the screen on my shoulders with the GSA screen than with the original, cured with the winglets fitted though :thumb
 
I've been using the NN extra high and wide screen for about 2 months and find it much better than the original screen. It is really good on motorways where you raise it to stop buffeting then lower it when you go back on A and B roads.
