+1 on Clark's Custom Windshields

I didn't see anyone say they are wider than stock (which they are). 6'1" here with 30" inseam and I got a 9" flat top and could have likely easily seen over the 10" too. It works well and I get wind but not turbulence until 85mph.

I also 2nd the highway pegs theory. I increase the turbulence when on the highway pegs. I have to go pigeontoed with my knees into the tank to decrease it.

PS - I don't remember who's sig that was with the orange cone coming out the hind end of that guy, but that is really, really disturbing! It sticks there! I'm going to have nightmares of that.

I'm 5'7" and I use an 8". At 6'1", I would venture a guess that something between 9 and 10 inches would work well for you. Good enough looks and coverage, and you can still look just over it without straining your neck.
