2 Half Fairing Styles available
- Sport or Touring
The AeroFlow R1200GS Touring Fairing is designed
for maximum 2-up touring comfort and protection in all types of weather. In response to requests from many of our
GS customers we've designed an alternative airflow solution that still provides excellent helmet and body protection but allows more airflow
to the arms and lower body. With it's smaller size, it's great for off-road
riding. This new design is called the R1200GS
Sport Half Fairing.
The primary difference between the Touring and
Sport Fairings is the size of the fairing "Body" (lower-half of fairing).
Except for the difference in Body portions, all of the Upper Windscreens and
brackets for both Fairings are interchangeable.
Existing R1200GS Touring Fairing owners can convert their fairings by just
mounting a Sport Body and removing a couple of brackets.
Half Fairing Upper Windscreen Portion
- Same for both Sport and Touring Half Fairings
●The Upper Windscreen
portion allows airflow to the backside of the windscreen. This airflow
combines with the air traveling on the front of the screen at the "flare" or
"lip", pushing the air up and over your helmet.
●Upper Windscreen portion
available in 4 heights: Standard, Medium, Tall & Extra Tall.
●Heights
measured vertically from top, front edge of gas tank. With bike on center
stand.

the tallest one you can easily/comfortably see over.

Sport Half Fairing Body Portion
The primary difference between the Touring and Sport Fairings is the size of the
fairing "Body" (lower-half of fairing).
●Sport
Body is 1/3rd the size of the Touring body and made of a heavier plastic to
eliminate fluttering at high speeds without the need for lower or side support
brackets.
●As
with the Touring Fairing, the Sport body also utilizes an air intake to relieve
back-pressure and provide airflow up the back of the screen which accounts for
our signature smooth airflow leaving the screen.
●Fairing
Body available in Clear or Smoke. Clear Body is paintable to match your
bike, simply spray the backside of the Body with spray paint made for plastics
●R1200GS
Sport-Fairing Upper Brackets adjustable for height and angle, regardless of bike
year or model:
Existing mounting instructions have separate "Adjustment" instructions based
upon the bike year and model. The R1200GS Sport-Fairing Upper Brackets can
be mounted Full-Forward (previously "08-on models only), Full-Back (previously
only '05-'07 models), or any position in-between, for all R12GS years/models.
This adjustment option allows you to raise or lower/fine-tune screen height for
best protection.
NOTE: For Any Screen Height/Upper-Bracket Adjustment:
All "screen-to-bike" and "screen-to-body" mounting hardware must be loosened
(6-screws) BEFORE adjusting the Upper brackets. Then Plastic must be adjusted as
described, then hardware tightened in sequence as described in the mounting
instructions, Step 6.
Touring Half Fairing Body Portion
Our Touring Half Fairing offers over the helmet airflow with no turbulence, no buffeting
and no back pressure.
●Touring Body directs air down, out and
away from the rider. The Fairing Body delivers lower torso protection and
expands the envelope of protection.
●Fairing
Body available in Clear or Smoke. Clear Body is paintable to match your
bike, simply spray the backside of the Body with spray paint made for plastics.
●Fairing
Body width, measured horizontally with yard stick.
Width at widest point: 24 1/2"
●Available
with special cuts to accommodate Adventure models or Hepco & Becker Engine
Guards.
Notes
●Half Fairing will
not mount properly with a Touratech Headlight Guard or similarly mounted covers.
●Please
advise us if you need the Adventure or Hepco Becker modified versions of the
Half Fairing.
●Non

Fairing Body. The turn signal stalks are available thru
A&S BMW,

also need to extend the wiring for each turn signal by 2".
