screen + sprockets X country

[fazernash]

Has anybody fitted a touring screen to there X Country ???
Would like to fit front or rear sprockets to lower revs at higher speeds anybody actually done this to there X Country

Can't help with the screen, but try Talon engineering for sprockets.

As they manufacture all their kit, they should have pretty much any size of sprocket available for you, and at much more agreeable prices than stock bmw.

cheers mate
Wot i was looking for was somebody thats actually changed there sprockets for larger/smaller to give you less revs at higher cruisin speeds, cant stay on the B roads all the way to scotland each trip

Hiya. I'v fitted a Isotta screen to mine, light tint, good an easy fit. £90 from Busters. Check there web site for pictures. Much better than bmw small screen, and far better than nothing, woks well on motorway.
Check out Adventur rider web site for info on sprocket changes, loads of comments on there. [lets see you xcountry]

Hope this helps.

DAVE.

Bavaria and back with a Puig

Fly screen Puig Naked kept some of the blast off and not so bad on side draught steering wobbles on higher speeds either, easy fit £40ish

didnt find final gearing an issue, went with two GS and no problems, just listen out for engine revs , better with ear plugs in can feel the vibes!

lots of xchallenge sprocket changes, most common is a drop to 14t for offroading, some go as low as 13t, for on road cruising i think cole went up to 16t for all day higher speed

Puig Touring screen

Was looking at one of these for the X Country which gives a wider deflection :

Thanks for all the input guys, think i'll pobably go with the Wunderlich screen, expensive but i hope it will give me the best protection. Will give Motorworks a ring about sprockets they seem to know wot there talking about when it comes to BMs. ( ps will try and put photos up of my 07 + 09 countrys)

Wunderlich screen for me. Not too big and ungainly, good fitting, does the job
