Screen spoiler
When I have my wife as pillion on longer rides she is more comfortable with the windshield fully extended. For myself with the windshield fully extended there is an annoying rumble of turbulence.
For this reason can anyone recommend a good quality screen spoiler or a different screen?

Re: Comfort screen
Who makes yours ? I have a slightly larger one from CEE Bailey and find it a superb addition as I am taller than your averaged bear :-) [/quote Just to clear things up. BMW have never made a larger screen for any 1200 RT until the 2014 model. There are some huge and not particularly nice after mark...

Hello everyone....
I have just taken ownership of a 2012 RT1200 SE. I am mightily impressed with the boxer which is a big contrast to my Honda VFR VTEC 2013 model, my reason for purchasing the RT was so that myself and the wife can tour Europe in a bit of comfort. I had a 580 mile ride from place of purchase to my hom...
