Hi All... |

Or spray several layers of Plastidip on the inside of the stock shield. Plastidip is fluid rubber and cost you less than €15,- If you don't like it, you can peel it off. Available in a lot of different colours! May be even in Lupin Blue......... |

Zitat von Lee im Beitrag #3 I also painted the inside of my cut down OEM screen. Works for me. (Unlike the photo loading on this forum) 6CDDD5FF-AA7C-4625-8A93-A8F98F262BC4.jpeg - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)

So this morning , i sat down and tried to apply window tint film, it started off well... but sadly due to the shape of the screen it was impossible to apply a smooth screen tint film... i ended up with wrinkles like one of those lovely Chinese Shar-Pei's !! |

Zitat von JohnnyRockett im Beitrag #9 How will you film through a tinted shield. My wife has the BMW tinted shield and I don't see how you could film through that shield.

Zitat von JohnnyRockett im Beitrag #9 Search eBay for "Puig R1200RS". I believe they do 3 different sizes, each in clear, light tint, or dark tint. The choice is yours! Cheers Paul B. |

Zitat von Lee im Beitrag #10Zitat von JohnnyRockett im Beitrag #9 My Mate filmed through a dark tint on his Ducati  Panagale with the same GoPro hero 4 as I have and the footage was unaffected by the tint. |

Zitat von JohnnyRockett im Beitrag #9 I have a Powerbronze screen like this one, which I no longer use: https://www.powerbronze.co.uk/bmw-r1200r...m-410-b119.html I only used it for one long weekend tour to Wales, but found it no different to the stock screen in terms of reduced wind noise etc, which makes sense, as it's advertised as having the same profile as the stock screen. I later moved to an MRA Vario screen, which is now my preference. However, if you're interested, drop me a message and we can haggle!
