What Taller Shield Do you Have, How Tall Are You, and How do you Like It?

(Using Stock Seat…..8-)

I've seen a flare 14" in person at a dealer--looks nice. I've also used MadStad's products on a couple Yamaha.

I'm 5'9", with 30" inseam. What taller shield do you have, and how do you like it? Please state your height.

I'm looking to look over the shield, preferably tinted, but be able to keep the visor up for radio and breeze in hot weather.

Thanks!

It also depends on what seat you have on your F6B.

Thanks. Edited to add using stock seat.

Try the Mad Stadd 13" you should be happy !!!

The Madstad 11", dark tint, is very good for me.
(5'9" w 32" inseam)
I look over the top from the stock seat.

I installed the 11", Short Dark Smoke Windshield from Show Chrome, located on the Wingstuff website.

At 5'-6" tall, I see over it, no problem.

Great shield. No buffeting. Came with the bike. Bought it used.

Leaning toward Madstad. They recommend 11" shield for 5'8" to 5'11". I've read a few threads talking about getting 13" instead. Are most 5'9"ers out there happy with the 11"? Why does this thread sound naughty?…..8-)

I have the one that you can go from 19 inches back to 11 inches when it gets hotter outside and I also noticed that it takes the wind noise down and lets you hear the stereo better at 80 miles per hour. If your into distance riding it is a nice option. Although your personal preference is the tell on windshields, you would have to fight some of these guys to get their Madstad windshield away from them.

Pseudo - this topic has been covered many times before. And I'm sure your'll have more questions about other accessories, please remember the search function the forum has. Try to see if we've covered the question first. You might be surprised at the amount of answers you will find.

I like a Clearview tall sports tourer with vent combined with baker wings. I'm 5'7" and use the stock seat but I sit tall in the saddle. If it's hot I open the wings and the vent.

I'm not keen on the looks of the Manstad while I understand the function is great.
