Yeah, I've got a set.

Doddle to fit, look OK, haven't crash-tested them (yet!) although I dropped my 1150GS (offroad) a couple of times with similar protectors on and they did the job.

Top speed

Just so you know, my R12S does exactly (satnav-verified) 152 on the rev limiter in top.

Germany is great... The R12S screen isn't.

Here's what I've done then...

From BMW... 2006 R1200S, in black, sans ABS Ohlins and Wide wheel Black screen Crash protectors (plastic) From loads of other people... Rizoma rearsets - the pegs on the standard bike are slippy in the wet, so I tried a set from a K1200S which were just as bad. Also have the slightly higher and a lo...

I've got MHP downpipes (as fitted to the new R1200S-HP) along with a Remus can.

Worth mentioning that it's just too loud without the baffles.

Buy (steal) a steel roofbar, whack it under where the centrestand should go and sit it on an axle stand on each side - the closer the better.

I use the Storms in winter (or for touring), the Vipers in the summer, and have been known to fit the odd Viper Extreme on my R1 racebike.

My only complaint is that my (slightly modified) R12 eats Storm rears in a little over 2000 miles :oops:

Can't believe I haven't been here before.

Evening all.

I'm Animal (I'm a muppet, and a pretty handy Drummer)

I've got some bikes, but the bling one is a R1200S, complete with Ohlins, an MHP full system, rearsets, and a few other choice shiny bits.
