The Cee Bailey's Aircraft Plastics, Inc., BMW R1200GS standard windshield was designed for simplicity and utility. The windshield is available
in three widths*, 2"wider than standard, 3" & 4"
wider than the stock BMW windshield. The windshield can be ordered
from 1" to 6" taller than the stock BMW shield also. The
windshield is hand crafted from .150 aircraft grade acrylic, with
hand polished and beveled edges. Each windshield fits using the original
BMW side adjusting hardware, and two longer finishing screws are provided
for the front-end mounting. The new windshield retains the stock adjustability
of the original screen.
*Testing of the screens in all height & width configurations show wind blast protection to the torso area is significantly increased, and helmet wind noise signature is decreased when the ram air hits near the top of your helmet. On a 6’1” rider 33’ inseam, the ideal shield would be a +4”taller and 2” wider. With this size the rider will still be looking over the shield, while the ram air from the top of the shield could be deflected to the top of the helmet via the adjustability. Although the +6” tall works fine in the street environment, we have not tested this size shield in the dirt, but have many miles on a +4” tall on fire roads and desert trails, with no tendency to deflect or bend in the mounting bracket. |
