I got to thinking the other day while riding: I think the lowest position provides the quietest ride for me but the angle of the windscreen is way to sloped and the wind just blasts me in the chest/head. The highest position offers great protection but too loud; but it's also at a different angle when it's at the highest position, almost like a shield. Well, what if I found a shorter windscreen that when put in the highest position offered the "shield" type of protection but not so high. So hear is my possible solution:
The difference in height is 4" from highest to lowest position, so find a windscreen that is 4 inches lower in overall height. My research leads me to this: 4 inches is 10cm or 100mm.
C600 sport OEM windscreen is 24 inches or 610 mm high according to my measurements, information on the internet says it's more like 650mm.
Wunderlich sport windscreen is 425 mm high.
Malossi windscreen is 400 mm high.
Earmax Aeromax is 510 mm.
Earmax sport screen 410 mm.
Puig Vtech sport screen says it is 610mm or 50mm shorter. (Their website has been updated with this information.)
I have emailed Puig to get clarification. I have a Puig for my Aprilia and it is well made but like many windscreens it creates terrible wind noise.
Received this email from Puig this morning:
For the BMW C600 SPORT we have two options:
- Touring version: part#6785 – 70mm higher than OEM
- Sport version: part# 6031 – 50mm lower than OEM.
We will update our site shortly as 110mm is a mistake.
