Product Information

Full details

This WRS Sport Windscreen is designed for BMW K 1600 GT ABS owners (2011-2026) seeking improved rider comfort and a sportier aesthetic. Its key benefit is significantly reducing helmet turbulence and wind impact on the shoulders, making rides more enjoyable, especially in warmer weather or during daily commutes. A potential caveat is its shorter height (45.5 cm) compared to the original, which may alter airflow dynamics for some riders. Constructed from durable 5mm PMMA plexiglass, it integrates seamlessly with the bike's design.

Will this windscreen fit my BMW K 1600 GT ABS?

Yes, this windscreen is specifically designed for the BMW K 1600 GT ABS models from 2011 to 2026.

Do I need special tools to install this windscreen?

Basic tools typically found in a motorcycle toolkit are usually sufficient. However, refer to your motorcycle's service manual for specific instructions. Professional installation is recommended if you are unsure.

How should I clean the windscreen?

Troubleshooting

Windscreen vibrates excessively at speed

Check that all mounting bolts are securely tightened. Ensure no foreign objects are trapped between the windscreen and mounting brackets. Verify the windscreen is correctly seated in its mounts.

Wind noise is still present

While this windscreen reduces turbulence, some wind noise is inherent to motorcycle riding. Consider adjusting your riding position or adding earplugs for further noise reduction. Verify installation is correct as per instructions.

Difficulty aligning mounting holes

Loosen, but do not remove, all mounting hardware. Align the holes and gently insert the bolts. Once all bolts are started, progressively tighten them in a crisscross pattern. Do not overtighten.
