This is a 12" Windvest light smoke I just received yesterday. I am 6' and can see over it. The top of the shield is level with my mouth. Holding my hand up at 70 mph the wind is about 2" above my head. It measures 11 3/4" from the top of the speedo/tach to the top of the shield. The recurve is across the entire width of the shield. Minimum wind noise and buffeting. I like it.
That's the SAME measurement I got with my 14" SERG Cee Bailey windshield. Looking to go lower by an inch...picked up the Clark's custom RG windshield, but haven't had a cahnce to put it on...it's lower than the 11.75" by 1 full inch...we'll see!!
