HEALTH WARNING : LONG VIDEO 🤪
Nippy Normans, kindly sent me the
Wunderlich clear headlight protector to do an installation video.
The cost of a stone going through your new BMW R1250GS'S headlight will be expensive, £900?
The headlight protector is of very good quality, but as I have the OEM auxiliary lights, the mounting bar causes the install to be an issue, kind of .
The instruction in the box are not that clear , hence Nippy Normans approaching me . Customers give negative feedback on the install instructions , particularly GS’s with the auxiliary lights mounting bar under the beak.
Best method , is to remove the side fairings and beak , to make access to the mounting bar nuts , so much easier ! Less likely to damage your pride and joy.
Panel removal is about 10-15 minutes
Installation of headlight protector is 10-15 minutes
Putting the panels back, another 10-15 minutes
TOTAL TIME IS ABOUT 35-45 MINUTES WITH LITTLE STRESS😁
Part number : WUN-26660-300
£119
You can try to access the bottom frame mount screws/nut if you want and not remove panels etc, but it will bring you a bit of frustration and possible frame scratching .If so, jump to 06:23 below.😁

I am sure there are other ways, but this is mine, with the auxiliary lights and mounting bar and no damage caused 👍
