Jimmy D Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Does anyone have any recommendation to a better windscreen than the standard stock one for a R1200RT? I do not enjoy looking through a windscreen endless of course its raining out and would perfer it down as low as possable. (Seen some types that divert the wind flow over the riders head) Thanks Much! jim Link to comment
DiggerJim Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 I'm a big fan of my Ztechnik Vstream clicky Tried the stock & a Cee Bailey but prefer the wind management of the Vstream. Link to comment
mwsR1200RT Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 After 6 years of use, I am still very pleased with my CalSci screen. http://www.calsci.com/motorcycleinfo/R1200RTprod.html I am 6'3" so went 2" over in height, and their standard width. There are other screens that have more complete coverage for cold riding, but I prefer just a bit of airflow in the hot summers here. The CalSci has just enough, but still can provide a very quiet pocket for listening to music while still being 2" below sight line. Link to comment

Jimmy D Posted August 28, 2013 Author Share Posted August 28, 2013 Jim.. I was looking at that type and liked the look of it in the smoked color. But can you bring it down low and still have the wind divert away from you? ( i like it down about chin level) Link to comment
DiggerJim Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Not sure how much you want diverted. There's some wind when it's at its lowest though. Since you're in MA if you want to do a roadtrip you can come down and borrow mine for an on-the-bike test. I can also toss you the Cal Sci or Cee Baileys to see if one of those makes you happier. The VStream is off the bike right now since almost everything is off the bike as I'm replacing the clutch. Link to comment

texasaggie97 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 JImmy, Cee Bailey is a great windscreen but I choose the Aeroflow. Check it out: http://aeroflowscreens.com/R1200RT/R1200RTProducts.htm I am very pleased with this screen and I know you will be as well if you decide to try it out. Link to comment
Jimmy D Posted August 28, 2013 Author Share Posted August 28, 2013 Thanks Jim for that offer! I did notice that the Ztechnik Vstream can be demo at Dunbar BMW.... I might drop by there to give it a whirl. (don't want to put you out) Thanks Jim! Link to comment
Jimmy D Posted August 28, 2013 Author Share Posted August 28, 2013 Thanks for your input! I'll also check that one out as well Link to comment
