BMW R18 Classic
Hi. I own anR18 classic but I want a taller windshield. Maybe even one with a flip up to the top portion of the screen.
I’ve seen one for a bagger but nothing for a classic.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
I have the Jurock 18" and like it quite well. I did not get the "flip" so can't address the effectiveness of that. I can say with absolute conviction that getting an inexpensive set of rectangular shaped lower deflectors on the front forks makes a world of difference. I ride 28 miles to work (like today) and get no turbulence, no updraft, I mean zero updraft.

I am only 5'8" (in good shoes) but can see over the Jurock comfortably. Oh and one other thing Wal.....the Jurock fits precisely on the classic windshield mounting hardware.

I’ve ordered 7 Jurock 18” flip and 20” non flip.
I’m only 5 6.5” so at least 1will work for me.
Delivery to uk was same for 1or 2 screens. 👍😎
 
If you have a seat like the weekender, I’m thinking you will be able to see over the 20”, but just barely.
I can just see over the Jurock 18” when using stock R18 seat.
 
Please keep in mind that a lot of the turbulence comes from below, R18 100 posted a solution for that, the trouble is (I think) that the clear parts they offer may not work if you have the auxiliary driving lights from the classic. I ordered the brackets anyway and as soon as they are here I will cut up a 1/4 inch piece of polycarbonate (lexan). I will post on the forum how it turns out.
