Windshield recommendations for F700GS

I recently pulled the trigger on a 2016 F700GS. I'm a windshield guy. Does anyone have a recommendation on who has a good one?
Thanks!

Congratulations on the F700GS :)

I "right sized" from and 800 pound Victory Vision 8 Ball to an F700GS in the fall of 2013 and never looked back. LOVE my F700!

May not be for everyone but I had my dealer fit mine with an F800GS Tour Windscreen before I took delivery.

I am 6'- 3" and wear a BMW System 6 Helmet (very nice, quiet, very aerodynamic, no buffeting), this combination works well for me, but I am sure it is not for everyone.
 
Cee Baileys BMW F700 GS 2013-Up Windshield - 12in Sport- Dark Gray Tint-

It works well for me. 5'4", regular seat, regular suspension

+1 on Givi Airflow, run at full height adjustment. Especially if you're thinking of adding hand guards. 5'8", Sargent seat, stock suspension (for now).
 
Madstad available if you are interested

I traded up from a 2016 F700GS to a new 1200 GS. I changed the stock windshield to a Madstad which worked great. I still have the Madstad windshield and would be happy to sell it as I have no use for it anymore. Contact me by private message if interested.

Aside from the already listed Givi airflow and madstad
CeeBailey got out of the motorcycle screen business it seems.

Nobody can recommend one for you because we all feel differently about each screen.

Marty,

I agree with you on the "correct answer". But pointers to available products or even better, pictures from members which show how a mounted product looks on their bike is very helpful and always much appreciated.

Touratech on Mine

I went with the Touratech Large touring windscreen on my F700GS - clear version. Pretty happy with it and makes a big difference at highway speed. It is about 14-inches tall - stock is 7 inches. It does require the "... the original BMW windscreen adapter part number 77338531603 installed on the bike. - only available through BMW dealers". That was from the Touratech website and is the same adapter the larger BMW factory shield requires - you remove the original plastic shield holder. It does clear the factory hand guards. Adapter part is about $60. Here is a pic of mine.

I’m using a Brittania composites mirage2 Cockpit and Screen (unfortunately not available anymore from the manufacturer) with an MRA x-creen spoiler to take care of the wind buffeting on my 2015 BMW F700gs

The only screen that was quieter than this was a 17” ceebaileys screen plus the spoiler but didn’t look as nice.

For a reference I’m 5,9” with a 29” inseam. I wear a Shoei Neotec helmet.

I use the stock but tinted screen. I'm 5'9" and 150 lbs. I must be crazy. Just returned from a 5.5k mile trip in eastern europe.
 
sorry for the confusion

I don't see a "airflow F.S." on the Givi website. Are you referring to an AF5107?

What is/was your experience with your windshield?

/Guenther
Sorry. yes that's the one. it works a treat, and is easily adjustable. I changed to a Z technic, which isn't really much different as it turns out. I'm 5'10" and the thing that really made a difference in protection for me was the addition of a lip at the top. I think the one I bought was a Puig, but there are several brands available.
