Cee Baileys on mine. Very cool looking curve back design. Does is job well. And they are dirt cheap compared to some other competition. About $90. If I recall I have a 11 Inch. That is measured from the top of the tank to the tip of the windshield.

5'11" and running the KW 6.5. Some don't like the look but to me it's not too bad. Still like the stock 4" and use it in the summer unless I'm doing really long highway miles. It really acts like an 8" shield while keeping it lower and I can still see over it, thank god, since it really distorts your view. One thing to consider is that with the 6.5, you can't use bags. I also have the adjustable fairing deflectors which make a huge difference both in the summer AND in the winter. Hope this helps...

I liked the KW 6.5 but it wouldnt work with my mounted fairing mounted GPS. I have the Harley Shield on it now.

I leave my stock on most of the time but now that its cooler and for longer trips I put the 6.5 KW's on. It's better on cutting down the buffering and cold air but for Christmas my wife is getting "us" (because she wants a bigger windshield while she's riding with me) a 9" LRS ultra medium tinted. I'm 5'8" and mostly use the stock seat but with the wife on we use the sundowner so I hope the new LRS makes her happy?

I am asked all the time who windshield I am running. The 11 completely directs wind over my helmet.

I'm 5'10" and am running the stock windscreen. Will be replacing it with a 6" Drag Specialties Skullz shield in the spring (for looks, not function).
