pics of Cee Baileys compared to BMW touring windshield?

Post by Disco Stu »

anyone have comparisons between their Cee Baileys windshield and the BMW touring windshield? Their website appears to compare the size of their windshields against the BMW sport windshield.

Thanks,
tim

totally off topic, but quite obviously a simpsons fan.

Did you see it this week? Marge's sisters described Homer as "that rare combination of 'up to something and good for nothing' ."

what a line!

oh and I replaced my touring windscreen because I could not get it to secure well enough with those stupid well nuts. YMMV, but I hated that.

Replaced it with the BMW "tall" 380 screen, which doesn't provide as much protection, but enough. and it is secure and looks good.

look in my Travels with stella! ride report and you can see it

I've had both on my 05RR and I could not tell the difference other than looks. I liked the BMW touring shield better.
Both caused a lot of wind noise and some buffeting. I"m 5'10" with a 31" inseam. I'm thinking about a Scout fairing but just can't part with the $$.... yet.
Hope that helps,
Jim

Jim,
Try going to the BMW sport shield first. Sometimes shorter/smaller is better when t comes to windshields on the R.
