Hi Fellas, I recently bought a Wunderlich Vario screen from Sanat Cruz BMW :

I waited 6 months for the mounting hardware for the R1200R to become available. After mounting the screen and riding with it I found that it isn't what I wanted. I have $350 invested in the screen and I'm going to sell it for any reasonable offer.

I'm 5'9" tall & with the screen in the lower position I was still getting helmet buffeting. I really didn't want a tall screen so I wasn't too crazy about using it in the up position. Other than that it looks to be well made.
