Hi

I am 5" 8 (178cm) and I need to replace the stock windscreen because of the buffeting. Has anyone on my hight replaced it with a 6 inch. Wondering if that is enough for a guy on my higth? THX

 

I'm 5'8" too. I went to a six inch and then an eight inch. The eight works great, although I like the look of the short one better.

 

Thx! I was afraid of that answer. The looks of the 6 inch is nice.

 

It's really all gonna depend on your riding posture...the depth of your seat...your handlebar positions. Altho I do agree the 8" will probably be better you'd be surprised at the taller guys with short wondshield that don't have an issue due to riding posture and deep cut seats.

Ride Safe, Mike

 

I should have mentioned that I use stock handlebars and a HD solo Brawler seat.

 

Well I am 6' and use a 10" in the winter and 6" in the summer.

 

I am 5'8" I went to a 6" screen, some improvement & looks good, but IMO not enough.
I have a 8" on the way.

 

With the Brawler The 6" works fine for me, I'm 5'11"

 

i have the clearview 6.5". i look over it. i like it because it still gives some breeze rather than a 8" which mostly you will look through it.
im 5.10. and yes , i agree above - posture has alot to do with what size u need. My sign photo is still from first day i got bike last year. will update photo as soon as we get a sunny day here.

 

I guess I should stay out of this as I just put a 3.5" Klock Works on and love it and I am 5'10". I like the wind though.
