I have a new klockwerks 6.5 dark tint. Is yours a dark tint? If so I'll trade you since I need a taller one. I'll pay the freight. I need an 8.5 since I'm 6'1"

My 8.5" Klock is the greatest thing since sliced bread on my 2010 Ultra.

Good luck.

Maybe "Yer" not to be looking through the shield, but I am. I look through my car's windshield every time I drive it too.

I look through my ClearView re curve all of the time. Even if your looking over your shield don't you still look down through it ESP on curves some times?

If you're looking through the bottom part of the shield, probably not a problem. but I can see how it's hard to look through the actual bend on the recurve

The curve in LRS shields don't distort your vision. I am amazed with my LRS.

I have a fastair ultra 8" in dark tint. I don't notice any distortion but usually look over the top. I do notice the tint a little when I'm tucked under it in the rain or dark but not bad. You should be able to look over it by 2-4" unless your slouchin. Sounds like you need a 6" or a phone book under your ****
