Hi I'm new to this site, My name is Ganesan from Malaysia.
I just collected my "new" 2004 Rockster from Bmw here.
After completeing my first 1,000 kms, I sent it in for my first service.
Its really nice now......took it on a 420 km ride, mostly in the rain and it is
simly awesome. I guess a visor would make a great difference. As at 140km/h the wind was really strong. I checked with Bmw here and they said that I could only get after market ones.....any suggestions? would appreciate the help. Cheers and Happy riding!

Welcome to the site Ganesan.
I have found the Wunderlich Trimm to be very good, and it is built specifically for the rockster. Here is my experience, with linked pictures

You probably wouldn't want to do the handguards as well. But they are nice in the cold. Good luck and Happy New Year
Cool beer!

Thanks Jfs, Your info is really helpful.
I had to call Spore as we don't have a WL disributor here.
New year's eve I took the bike out again and went up to 160 Kms/hr
the wind hits right into the neck.....I'm only 5'5", 175 lbs guys.
Cheers and happy riding.........if anyone of you are travelling to Malaysia
do drop me a line......would love to buy you a cup of coffee or a chill glass of beer!

Welcome aboard, I'm partial to the GIVI line, the A750 specifically. Never had any speed or buffeting problems and was very well made.
