Excellent piece of kit. Fitted perfectly and in seconds(about 2 mins actually) Would advise removal of spring shroud or it could foul (rub).

Fitting was very easy with good simple instructions. The Mudsling seems to work well and protect the shock as i had wanted.

A bit pricey for a plastic moulding, but does the job well. Easy to fit, and suits the look of the bike very well. Still leaves a small gap just in front of where the cable ties secure it on either side which lets crud get to the seat sides - would've been so easy to extend the moulding forwards a little to block this.

A great product that does the job well. After it had been on for one commute of 50 miles, I could see the muck that had landed on this instead of the battery, shock, swing arm ...you get the idea! It seems strong and once fitted is very unobtrusive. I have an Akrapovic sport system exhaust. Fit is fine!

Like all pieces of plastic you do wonder how the price is achieved, but in comparison to other products this well made and does the job well too, plus looks great. I have fitted black tape around the frame before fitting to prevent damage from the cable ties and contact points, but I am fussy! My left foot is now dry too :)
This is the MudSling MAX !
MachineartMoto, designers of specialized products for BMW motorcycles, introduce an all new MudSling. rear fender for the BMW R1200GS and R1200Adventure. The MudSling MAX design adds new benefits to the successful MudSling. formula originally introduced in 2005. Fitting in between the rear shock and tyre, it deflects mud, water, and rocks away from the suspension, battery area and rider to prevent damage and keep the rear of the bike cleaner.
HERE IS THE IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The MudSling MAX is re-shaped to be longer and wider with 12% more surface area for even better splash coverage than the original MudSling.. It is designed to fit with Jesse Odyssey II and Micatech aluminum pannier mounting brackets in addition to standard BMW and aftermarket side cases from SW Motech and Pelican. The MudSling MAX fits with both standard and ESA suspension.
"Our policy is to constantly improve the functionality of our products while broadening their appeal through customer feedback. We designed the MAX to meet the needs of customers who own aftermarket aluminum cases, and that added feature distinguishes it in the market¡¨, says Andrew Serbinski President of Machineart. "If a rider has invested in an expensive aftermarket shock or the ESA option, the extra coverage area of the MudSling.MAX is its best protection".
The MudSling is exclusivly distributed in Europe by Nippy Normans.
Comparisons show that the MudSling is thicker, stronger AND gives more coverage than any similar product!
PLUS it has a far better finish which matches OE plastics.
Designed to keep the muck that the rear wheel throws up off you and the rear of the bike, the MudSling is a top quality product:
It offers great protection for the rear shock and for the very exposed battery!
The protection is so good that the stock shock guard is no longer needed
More features:
***Manufactured from 4mm thick High Impact ABS
***Quality textured finished.
***Easily fitted securely with two screws and four zip ties included.
The wide design of the MudSling also keeps the under seat area cleaner
Includes full fitting instructions and relevant fittings
NOTE:The Mudsling MAX is suitable for use on bikes with lowered suspension.
ALL BIKES - Always adjust your suspension when going from 1 up riding to 2 up and/or 2 up loaded to prevent the suspension from bottoming out - this will optimise the performance of the MudSling.
