BMW R1200R R1150R/T F800 K1200R R1100R/T R1250R RnineT Message Board

I agree and can only slightly amend this message.I also have had an MRA two piece touring and BMW sport windshield, but I also prefer the little BMW "fly screen" that is just a little bigger than the instrument cluster. I confirm it keeps the wind off most on my chest and gives cleaner air around my head with lower noise levels. The helmet visor does take more of the rain. I have used it for 2 years.

Is the fly screen different than the sport shield? I have the touring and sport. I find the touring is unbearable in terms of bueffeting, the sport is better, though I can't help thinking something just a bit smaller would be just right...

It is smaller. I am having trouble posting pics or I would throw one up.. It only has 2 arms for the mounting bracket as opposed to the 4 on the sport and touring.

You find the "Touring" shield buffets too much? How tall are you?

I have the same shield, and added a Wunderlich "spoiler" to the top....world of difference. The smaller shields [fly-screen]..{IMO} are fine around town, but I was getting bombarded with bugs and ?? on the highway.

BTW, how tall [is] the "sport" shield?

I'm 5'9" with 31" inseam. For me, the sport shield is okay other than being considerably noisier than riding with no screen. The touring screen is quite a bit taller than the sport, though I don't have them in front on me to measure. Maybe a spoiler on the sport would be a good compromise.
