Aeroflow gang:
I'd like to take this opportunity to let you know how happy I am with your R1150GS half fairing.
I'm a tall guy at nearly 6'5", and finding a motorcycle I'm comfortable on is a bit of a challenge. After crashing my BMW 1150RT, I wanted to get a lighter, more nimble bike, yet one that was still big enough for me to be comfortable on. The 1150GS was my choice, and I liked all aspects of the bike, except the tiny windscreen. After only 30 minutes or so of riding, I'd have a horrible headache. Interstate trips were out of the question, as I could barely hang on to the bike. I was missing my RT, and beginning to think I'd made a horrible mistake in buying a GS.
I read several testimonials from satisfied Aeroflow customers, but the cost of the half fairing kept me away. I modified my stock screen, tried a Givi screen, and even a GS Adventure style screen tailored to my height. While both the Givi and the Adventure screen helped, I still suffered from some buffeting. I discovered by accident that the turbulence was coming from my LEGS! I thought to myself, "That's why the Aeroflow has those big 'pods' on the side".
I ordered the half fairing, installed it, and went for a ride. What a wonderful product! Not only did it cure the buffeting problem, it made the ride many times quieter. I can actually hear the bike running! Before, I couldn't ride to the end of my street without earplugs in, now I reserve the plugs for long rides at highway speeds (although the screen has make even high speeds tolerable).
The half fairing was money well spent. It's turned my GS into a wonderful touring machine that is darn near as good as my RT. You guys have given me exactly what I wanted. A lighter, more nimble, less expensive RT...in GS skin!
Thanks!

Hello from Paris, France.
One year ago, I bought an Aeroflow half fairing for my 1150 GS from Calamender in UK. It has changed a good bike for me into a nearly perfect one : no more buffeting and noise. I can drive now long distances much more relaxed. This summer, I rode from Paris to Romania and back and I was very happy to have the screen.

Ben, I just read your article in the Sept. 02 Bike Magazine on the BMW R1150 GS. I agree with you completely. I purchased my 2002 GS last September. By this Summer I had decided the GS was gutless and bought a Suzuki GSX R1000 (what a bike!). My brother-in-law, Tony started riding
with me since I have an extra bike and the wind battering above 55 mph actually gave him a headache. Earplugs and a full face helmet helped but he couldn't keep up. I talked to a fellow getting his GS serviced at the same time I had the bike in the shop for an oil change, and he said he solved the problem with an AeroFlow two piece upper windscreen and lower body portion screen. I got one at aeroflowscreens.com for $409.95 and installed it within an hour. Cruising at 95 mph is like sitting in your Lazyboy chair watching TV. No Wind! Tony says that the reason we had trouble with the bike was the wind that held us back, I agree. The bike is now perfect, and we call it "the Hoss", the GSX R1000 "the Boss". You should consider the handling you had at the track and wonder how good it could be if you were not being killed by the wind. Get in touch with AeroFlow and let me know how it works. I was going to sell the BMW until I listened to the rider in Baton Rouge, LA. Good Riding,

I called around and also polled my Northwest GS web group and asked about aftermarket windscreens. The consensus was that the Aeroflow was the best screen available for my 1150 GS. I was about to head out on a 3400 mile trip and so I ordered the Aeroflow half fairing screen. The ordering process was efficient and the screen arrived on the date promised. After ordering the screen, I figured that I might as well install the Piaa lights at the same time. Since I was going to remove the gas tank to hook up the Piaa lights, I figured I might as well put in the quick disconnects on the gas lines so that I could easily remove the tank in the future – i.e., like when I needed to service or replace the battery. Others had suggested just propping up the tank but I am glad I took the extra time and effort to remove it. It allowed me to mount the Piaa relay and stow the extra wires nicely.
The Aeroflow screen went on easily. The installation directions were clear once you looked at them for a bit and the parts were well labeled. I had a very good ‘out of the box’ experience with the Aeroflow product. I am 6’ 2” and Aeroflow had suggested the tall screen for me and I was worried that the edge of the tall screen would be right in my main line of sight. To my relief and satisfaction, the edge of the installed screen was in the perfect position just below my line of sight.
The Piaa lights and the gas line quick disconnects took more time to install. They took more time probably because I took my time and was real cautious and tried my best to do a clean install. There is that point of no return and full commitment when you slice through your gas line….(:^o
Well, the effort and expense was well worthwhile. The Aeroflow screen performance was excellent. Not just good, but excellent. We rode 3450 miles though side winds, rain, hail, and a snowstorm on I-70 that coated the entire screen with ¾ inch of snow. (We have a photo) The Aeroflow screen performed well in all circumstances as well as at triple digit speeds. It made the ride a lot more fun by smoothing out the air for me. The screen also has an attractive curve to it when viewed from the side.
The integrated mounting for the Piaa lights is well positioned. The lights are tucked nicely under the snout on the screen frame and not only great for conspicuity, but they really light up the road at night.
I would certainly recommend the Aeroflow screen to any GS rider that wants to get rid of the buffeting that comes with the stock screen.

Hi Page!
I promised you pictures of my 1150 with the Aeroflow half-fairing on it. As you can see, I need to wash my bike. But getting back to your screen, wow! What an improvement over the Parabellum and stock BMW screen that comes on the bike.  
When I last contacted you I was wondering how to attach PIAA 520's to the bike. After considerable thinking and conversations, we decided to cut about 2"-3" off the bottom of the screen. As you can see by the JPEG13 above it looks great up close and also from a distance in 11 and 12. Anyway it was a GREAT solution. I would recommend it to anyone. It has not affected the screen protection or the strength at all.
The other shots, 15 and 17, are just great to have to see the protection the screen offers and how it looks with 520's mounted. Feel free to use these JPEG's on your site. Pictures
Thank you,

Gentlemen,
I just received my new windshield for my R1150GS and installed it yesterday. Installation was as easy as you said - no problems. Well that's not the best part. It works even better than described or expected. I just had to put a quick 200 miles on just to see if what I was feeling was not a fluke. No more neck and shoulder pain, no more wind noise. I don't know what you did but it really works.

I JUST GOT AN AEROFLOW WINDSCREEN FOR MY 1150 GS. I CAN TRULY SAY THAT THIS IS THE BEST SCREEN YOU CAN PUT ON A GS. I JUST REPLACED A PARABELLUM WITH THE AEROFLOW SCREEN AND THERE IS NO COMPARISON. THE AEROFLOW MAKES THE BIKE ALMOST AS QUIET AS MY R1100 RT. ANYONE WHO WANTS MORE INFO CAN CONTACT ME AT BROCKLER@AOL.COM
 

Got it. Victory installed it. I've ridden 1800 miles with it. It's another Aeroflow HOME RUN! Paige, you're a helluvan engineer. The small tabs at the bottom make a world of difference on the turbulence. The height is perfect. Thanks for all of your help in getting this to my new bike on time. Keep up the excellent work!

This isn't an inquiry. I just want to say thanks for prompt service and a great product. Installed the Aeroflow half fairing on my 2000 BMW 1150GS, today - Christmas. Everything fit, went together EXACTLY as the instructions said they would. Looks great and works better! I am 6'5" with 33' inseam, your tall shield took away all the buffeting. I just can't say enough about the effectiveness of the your design. Thanks again and please let me know when the AeroGards are available for the 1150GS.

As with all Aeroflow products I have purchased, I want to tell you how satisfied I am with your latest product.
I received my R1150 GS half-fairing yesterday, installed it last night (along with a set of PIAA lights, thanks to your ingenious mount), and spent what free time I had today running up and down the road. Your windscreen system on the new GS works great. Thanks for making a good bike great.
PS.......it also makes the bike look better!
Thanks again,
Keith Stowers
 

Christine -
It did come today. I got home early enough to put in on and go for a short ride. It is, in a word, GREAT!! An amazing change to the bike. I was cruising a good 15mph faster than usual waiting for the head banging turbulence to start. It stops the draft coming up your helmet and all the random wind around the torso. BMW should be required to provide this shield as factory equipment for the GS. My GS is much more enjoyable to ride now, so much that I'll probably sell my other bike.  Viewed that way, I figure I come out $3600 ahead on the deal!  
Thanks again, I'm very pleased.

Dear Christine:
I want to thank you for the extraordinary customer service. I only have 50 miles behind the screen, but so far I like it a lot. I also want to thank you for introducing me to Page. He was awesome and helped me install the shield. This is what riding motorcycles is all about: meeting great new people...you guys all fall into that category.
I will write Paige separately, but thank him again for me in the meantime.
Peace,
Bill
 

I have several hundred miles on my Adventure with Aeroflow/tall windsheild. What I thought was the perfect motorcycle is now even better. The difference is amazing. Now that I know how well the Aeroflow performs, I would not ride without your equipment.
