Default Klockwerks 16" vs. Stock hd shield rg

Wanted to get some takes on this. I had a very hard time with my stock rg hd shield, i couldnt find a sweet spot . I was either crouching down to get under it or sitting completely erct to see over it. Im 5'10. So i got the klockwerks 12" and i really like it but im thinkin the klockwerks 16" might be the way to go. First question is whats the height on the hd shield? Second- can anyone out there \with the kklockwerks 16" shield provide some real world feedback

Check out the HD shield #57166-10. Its a brand new shield for Road Glides called the wind splitter and it looks just like the Klock Werks 12". I bought one and am waiting for it to arrive.
Priced at $160 but with 20% off its like 130 something.

There is a post kicking around with real world measurments of the windshields. That would be a good place to start. Manufacture measurements are all over the place. That's why that thread was started. You'd be surpised to see just how high the claimed size of the windshields are compaired to each other.

I know it's not the answer to the question you were looking for, but I'd look at the companies that make the windshields for quality vs. MOCO's attempt to get into the game. If their new shield is of the quality of the other ones they offer all ready, I think you maybe disappointed.
