Windscreens for Your BMW R1300RS
The first few miles are quickly covered: helmet on, engine started and off into the countryside with the BMW R1300RS. But the longer the ride lasts, the more clearly you notice how much influence the wind has on comfort. Sometimes you ride briskly along country roads, while other times a longer motorway stretch lies ahead. With the right windscreen from Hornig, the BMW R1300RS can be specifically adapted to different riding habits and types of tours.
When the winding country road is the destination
At the weekend, the winding route beckons: little luggage, open roads and the BMW R1300RS in sporty use. For such rides, the sports windscreen fits particularly well with the character of the motorcycle. It offers a more compact solution for riders who appreciate direct contact with the wind while also wanting to preserve the sporty appearance of the BMW R1300RS.
Especially on shorter rides or dynamic trips along winding country roads, a smaller windscreen can be an interesting alternative. With the sports windscreen, Hornig offers an option for adapting wind protection to your personal riding style without losing sight of the sporty character of the machine.
A long day in the saddle changes your perspective
A few hours later, the same ride can look quite different. A short outing turns into a day trip, the route covers several hundred kilometres and faster sections are also part of the journey. This is where more targeted wind protection becomes interesting. The touring windscreen for the BMW R1300RS was developed for riders who regularly cover longer distances and want to reduce wind pressure in the process.
The wind is directed further over the rider, which can provide a more comfortable riding position, especially on extended tours. This makes the sporty BMW R1300RS an even more versatile companion for long country-road stretches, motorway sections and extended motorcycle trips.
When the route gets longer and conditions become more changeable
The next morning, there is no fixed route on the agenda. Maybe it will be 100 kilometres, maybe 500. For precisely these situations, the Vario touring windscreen offers a flexible way of adapting wind protection more closely to the particular riding situation. Its adjustable design allows the airflow to be adapted to your own riding position and personal preferences.
This can be particularly interesting on longer tours when speed, road type and weather conditions change throughout the day. With the Vario touring windscreen, Hornig therefore adds a solution for riders who want to remain as flexible as possible when it comes to wind protection.
Clear vision is also part of the tour
During the ride, the windscreen performs an important task – but as the kilometres add up, dust, insects and other dirt accumulate on the screen. Especially with low sunlight or changing weather conditions, a clean surface can quickly become a crucial detail. That is why, alongside tyres and fuel tank, the windscreen and visor should also be on the checklist for a longer tour – because good visibility is everything.
For cleaning the windscreen, Hornig offers the National Cycle Windscreen Cleaner. This allows the screen to be freed from the traces of the day's ride after a tour and prepared for the next outing. In addition, the S100 Visor and Helmet Cleaner with Cloth is suitable for cleaning the helmet visor – because a clear view does not end at the upper edge of the windscreen.
When rain suddenly becomes part of the journey
Of course, not every tour sticks to the weather forecast. Blue skies in the morning may have disappeared completely by the afternoon. When rain starts to fall, having the clearest possible view becomes even more important. The S100 Anti-Rain Water Repellent with Cloth therefore complements the equipment for situations where water on the visor becomes an issue.
This creates a harmonious combination around the BMW R1300RS: the right screen influences wind protection, a clean screen supports visibility and the right care helps ensure that both remain effective even after many kilometres. Hornig offers various solutions for this – from a sporty after-work setup to more comfortable equipment for a longer tour.
Ride the BMW R1300RS in the way that suits your tour
There is no single perfect way to ride the BMW R1300RS. Sometimes the next corner is what matters, while at other times it is all about arriving as relaxed as possible after a long day on the road. That is precisely why it is worth choosing wind protection to suit your own use. The sports windscreen is suited to sport-oriented rides, the touring windscreen is aimed at riders with a greater focus on touring, while the Vario touring windscreen provides additional flexibility when choosing wind protection.
Whether the BMW R1300RS is heading out for a quick evening ride after work or is ready early in the morning for the start of a long journey: with the right windscreens and care products from Hornig, the machine can be specifically prepared for your personal everyday riding and the particular tour.
