What screen for a 2005 F650 GS

[LindaS]

Hi
As the title says.
I'm new here and this is my first question. I'll get my bike on Saturday and would like a taller touring type screen. I've found some on the web but mainly for the new model, mine is a 2005.
In some threads I've seen TT accessories mentioned. Can I please have a link? Is there a catalogue? Where is the best place to look for some bling?

Thanks
Linda

Hi, I had a 650 single and the screen for it is sale here: http://www.ukgser.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1591438&postcount=1 but it is a tall one and for a 4 hole one, ie twin spark.

A usefull site is www.f650.co.uk bits come up for sale on there as well as here.

Touratech is here: http://www.touratech.co.uk/ but many of the banner advertisers sell their bits. Another make to look out for is Wunderlich.

how tall are you?

i have one of the dark puig screens on mine, like the ones doing the rounds on ebay

at 6 foot tall, i find it a little short and it funnels wind at my head. if you are a bit shorter it will probably be ok, and it looks ace fitted! i had a Wunderlich barn-door size screen fitted, and it just didnt look right to me. Depends how much that bothers you though i guess.

i personally dont mind a bit of wind coming over the screen though, it reminds me what speed i'm doing

Try a laminar lip, available from http://shop.heroblobs.co.uk/collections/bmw-f650gs

It is a relatively cheap, stick on solution which has made a huge difference to my comfort and ability to cruise along the motorway
