I'm thinking about shelling out for a Wunderlich screen. Has any one tried one, are they any good?(Std screen causes me major buffeting at anything over 70mph and I'm only 5ft9in!!

Screen
I've just ordered one after a long chat with a very nice man @ SPC should be with me Friday.
Had exactly this same issues with the standard one.
I was going to get a MRA but they advised me they would not be selling them any more due to Vibration problems with the upper screen.
I'll let you know how I fare.

Thanks for the speedy replies -knew I'd find a use for this bloody computer thingumy in the end .Please let me know how your Wunderlich performs.
By the way-the name is Tony-----ANTHONY was only my mother trying to prove she had a sense of humour!

My MRA screen has performed ok over last 5-6000 miles and I don't get any real bad vibe problems with upper screen.It performs far better than any other screen I have tried (with exception of RT1100 electric screen).
The MRA screen is great and in Das Mottorad (German Bike Mag) the screen got rave reviews. From others experiences some people have had problems with the Ermax/Wunderlich screens.
If they don't fit you there's not a lot you can do - but at least with MRA you can trim it to suit all heights and sizes.

ermax
Hi Tony
When i got the bike the ermax screen was already on it
I'm 5'8 and seat at low have no buffeting saying that i have ridden
gs's with original screens and the only difference was wind noise
the ermax is thinner than original but is stable at speed
mine is at it's lowest setting so i can see over it
hope this helps

Givi screen
I had the same problems (at 5' 8") with the standard screen and ended up with a Givi screen as I'd used them on other bikes and generally found them excellent quality and effective and have to say this is no different.
I need it on the lowest setting so I can see over it but there's a distinct lack of buffeting and I don't get flies on my shoulders anymore. Good for near ton cruising anyway.
It's thicker than the standard screen and fits very well and costs around 70 quid (I'm not sure exactly how much as I bought a whole load of other stuff from the shop at the same time and got a few quid off)
Cheers

Gauloises,
Your screen is the ERMAX but the newer Wunderlich model looks more like the one on the Adventurer. It was advertised in the BMW Club Magazine last month at £110 I think. I don't know much about it.
By the way, where'd you get the natty headlight protectors ?

Hi Alex
I don't no either, the ermax was about £100
if your thinking about screens pop across and you could have a go on mine.
The lamp guard is of an adventure

Gauloises,
Yes, I should have guessed it was an Adventurer protector - it looks good on your bike against the blue/white finish. Dream Machine did a super job on it by the way !!
I have an identical screen to your one (ie the Ermax) except mine is the clear as opposed to the tint finish. I am thinking of maybe spending the extra and also buying the new Wunderlich screen although I may have to sell the Ermax to avoid my wife criticising the ongoing cash spend on the bike.
I'm about 10 miles west of Southampton, near Ashurst/Totton. I must confess I've NEVER seen a GS1150 in Bournemouth so you might truly be the sole GSer in that nice part of the country. I guess your nearest dealership is CW ?
Will you be at Beaulieu on 28th or 29th ?

WunderLunch Arives
My WunderLunch Screen Arrived at Friday as SPC promised it's great.
Half way between a standard screen and the Ermax I had previously in height and slightly wider ala new adventurer screen. Defo improvement on both I have tried previously. It also has no lip - curl at the top edge which I believe caused a lot of the turbulence.
Attached a couple of piccys

Update on Screen Experience
Hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm wot should I say -
Not bad at all - not to much turbalance relatively quiet even with the Arai.
One moan the holes it pivots on are to large for the black clampy thingys and the sceen will move up and down a bit - small amount of contack adsive fixed it.
My spelling getting werss must get a new PC.
Any body want a Ermax ?

I have the new Wunderlich screen (bought from SPC), as sported by 'Needlongerlegs' above.
Before I bought the screen, Miles at SPC lent me his and I spent the morning blasting up and down the A-what-ever-it is (Alton bypass), trying the screen in all positions.
Whereas, I preferred the stock screen in the most vertical position, the Wunderlich works best for me in the most laid back position.
I've done a few long runs since I bought it. Make no mistake, you still get buffeted pretty much, but the nature of the buffeting has changed. With the stock screen, I always felt that there was a high-frequency buffeting going on (the sort that would have your fillings vibrate). That's all gone now. Worth the Alderley!
