Wunderlich Rockster Sports windscreen!
I ordered it from Santa Cruz BMW. It arrived sooner than expected. Of course, I live in the Bay Area. Anyway, installed it and it was easy. My opinion on it that it's awesome. It looks good, conform to Rockster's look, pretty good wind-protection. Not as good as an RT or GS but satisfied with it. Wunderlich makes two others and they're both hideous and uncool. I am sure it would work for long trips but who gives a damn. I went to Milwaukee on my ZRX1200R and it works well on long trip. It's windscreen looks cool but doesn't provide much protection and I still don't care. Of all the windscreen for Rocksters out there, Parabellum tops out the ugliest of all while Wunderlich's sportscreen tops out as the coolest looking. So, there!
The screen?
Yea man, let's have a pic!
Ookay
I am at work. When I get home, will take pixs and load it onto my Apple. Look for it tonight.

Rockster screen
That looks a hell of a lot better than I thought it would -- might have to get one myself!
Yes, I have Bry's old one and they are great. Wind protection all out of proportion to their small size, and they really look like they belong, actually accentuate and complement the bikes original lines. Easy to fit(but you need a Torx set). I don't want to offend anyone, but all the other ones I've seen posted just look naff by comparison, spoiling the lines and intention of the bike. (and the laser can and cat replacement are great, too)

why not just buy a tourer? Surely we are changing the essence of a sublime naked bike here? I recently had 1200GT as a loan bike when mine was in for 6000ml service and really didn't like it. Living on the West coast of Scotland, believe me there is PLENTY of wind and I kinda missed it behind a screen.....maybe its just me?
No, it didn't have an adjustment knob.
You don't really need any instruction manual on how to install it and it was TOOO EASY to install it on.
It's the shortest of all Wunderlich's screen but Laminar Lip's the tiniest but doesn't conform to Rockster's
As for bike with lotsa wind protection, I ain't for it because it's too piggy! No offense, ha! Only wind-protection I want are on racebikes.
Glad that some of youse guys like'em. Get'em and you'll love it!

I have to disagree with you on this particular screen-fervently. I have seen a lot of God-awful ugly screens fitted to bikes, (including Rocksters)but there are a very few that actually improve the bike they are on in all respects, and this is one of them. This isn't one of those" put on a barn door and lets add bar risers at the same time " thing. If you feel you have to go down that route, then you have bought the wrong bike. Generally speaking I hate screens, too, but this really accentuates the lines of the bike. Properly adjusted ( for me), the angle exactly extends the line of the cowling , without touching at the lower edge, and that lower edge is moulded to exactly match the profile of the instruments. You really have to see it in the flesh, look at it from all angles. This is NOT something you have to accept for the sake of wind protection, it's a winner all round. I rode 320 km this morning, return trip into a headwind, and wasn't bothered once, at good average speeds.Old Crockster wrote:why not just buy a tourer?
