Mid-rake, screen on highest setting worked well for me (6'6" with 34" inseam). Tobinators made no significant difference.

Me too, but I am just 6.0 on a good day. Anything less than highest setting did not work for me. Now I have quite forgotten there was ever a problem. Norman

Steepest Rake and Highest upper screen setting does it for me, I too am 6' on a good day...........

Do you mean steepest as in "upright" or as in laid as flat as possible on the panel ?

THANKS YOU LOT!

It had better be good, this screen. Wunderlich charge a pretty penny for this thing. £149.61 plus VAT (including original BMW bracketry as mine had been replaced withe the ADV screen)
Luckily a GS is about the only bike of it's ilk that can be legitimately called a farm vehicle..to get the VAT back.

I paid the same for mine from SPC, before they became a must-have GS accessory.

I also got the Wunderlich engine bars from them for £100, again, before they became popular. They're now charging £161.

Back to the MRA thread

I assume it, the MRA Vario Screen, fits using the original BMW screen gear?

It hasn't arrived yet but expect it any day now!
