My screen and lights are off a GS1200, I am guessing of around the 2008 ish era... I know nothing about them because they are way too big and heavy for me. But, I would like to get another screen.... if it helps it has angular 'wings' each side.

Answers on a postcard. First correct answer out of that hat will win a free lifetime subscription to my dad jokes! Many thanks.

Looks to me like a standard BMW screen from that era. I’ve got the one from my late 2007 1200gs if you’re interested?
 
Don't leave the reg plate visible, otherwise an mot check could show exactly what model it is.

Please donate your kind prize to someone else.

Try it, see what it actually says... you will find it is a X Moto, which it isn't, because the dealer cocked up the paperwork, but as the Moto and Challenge are the same bike with different wheels I have never worried about it. It is a right bitsa, so the paperwork is a waste of time. Plus it was written off and has been put back together.

I have never understood this worry about your numberplate. Every time you ride your bike the number is on display to the world. Are there people who like motorbike registrations instead of train numbers?

F650; as we are aware there are nefarious individuals.

I'm still trying to see how you got the gsa screen to fit.

There you go then,
That’s incorrect for starters as the bike is a G 650 Xchallenge,
I had a hand in building it a few years ago,prior to it being sold then presumably written off.
A very good bike it is too:D
It’s a standard R1200gs screen not GSA
