Hi, new to this forum, just got myself a 2015 R1200RS SE Sport. 

Been riding over 30 years, but this is my first BMW and first ever boxer engine! Last bike was a GSX-R750 (L1) so I'm still adjusting to the BMW, quite a different machine! 

Already got a question - I'm not tall (5'8") and my bike has the touring screen fitted already but wind is hitting my right on the forehead of the helmet. Have moved the screen up to the higher set of mounts but makes no difference. Can anyone recommend a screen extension?

Welcome to the Forum Community and BMW RS ownership.

I see your separate thread on the windscreen issue - I request responses be made in that thread.

Hey SpecialCircs,

I recommend the Puig Touring Screen, I use the tinted one.  I'm 5'7 but I also have the lowered OEM seat as well.  I find that puts the air into the top vents of my Shoei when the screen is in the lowered position.  The clear on is on Amazon for $150.

Cool
