F800 GSA new model -screen info - this post may confuse.....

[Roger Chatterton]

Hi ,
has anyone with the new 2015 800 GSA any info on the screen please? I have an 2013 F700 (with 800 screen fitted), and I'm looking, like everybody does, for an improved screen for touring.
Over on Adv Rider someone has posted that the new and improved GSA screen will fit onto an 800, and thus I guess it would fit onto my 700, which has the 800 screen and fittings.
Sorry if this is confusing........

So, is the new adventure screen an improvement - does it provide better wind and rain protection, etc etc. It certainly looks taller and wider and more shielding from wind and rain and bugs.
Yes,I know a screen is very subjective, but I need some info to get me started please.
I also wonder how much they cost --£££££ ?

I have a screen from WRS Evotech in Italy which is similar to the BMW 'touring' screen but is taller, wider and a lot more weather protection and, unlike the BM screen, doesn't throw all the muck & bullets straight into your visor.
Plus its only 115 euros. If the one I've found on their website for the F650 fits the 700 its only 99 Euros!
What's not to like?
Check them out and see what you think.

I have an F700 with an 800 screen (cut to fit the standard 700 mounts) and have borrowed GSA for a couple of days and the GSA screen is great BUT it'll cost a lot to fit one as you'll also need the extra screen supports the GSA has over the standard 800GS screen.

I love the GSA screen but I think you'll get the same benefit with either the Givi AirFlow or Givi Touring screen for a lot less money. The Wunderlich Evo(?) screen is also pretty good by all accounts and comes in at £130 from Nippy Normans (I've no affiliation with them, just been looking myself).

Hi Roger
No I have not ridden a `15 GSA, but I have just got my Britannia Composites fitted to my 658, and I have to say it appears to be everything I was looking for (just putting all the four other screens together in one box - must have spent as much on then as this one alone!).
