Just wondering if anyone knows if the screen and hardware from the R1200gs will fit the R1200r?

Thanks in advance for your comments..

Nope, the attachment points/system is different on the GS to accomodate a screen that is adjustable whereas the R's screen is stationary.

Thanks for that, do you know if the mounting hardware can be fitted to the r1200r?

While it may be possible, I doubt it'll be practical.
By the time you have welded on the hardware to attach the adjustable screws on the sides, it would be cheaper to buy a good aftermarket windshield.

Oliver,

Thanks for your comments. I see what you mean, I had a look at an R1200gs at work today, and I think it was a silly question now.

Regards,
Dave
