Here's another pic of a F6B that I found on the 'net with the same shield I have just ordered. This F6B has a Mustang seat so the shield appears to be higher. I do hope that I have ordered enough shield. I'm 5'10" with 30" inseam, sitting on a Ultimate King seat (which is higher than a Mustang/stock OEM seat)... I know that Madstad recommends 11" windshield for my dimensions... though each time I go with a manufacturer's recommendation for windshield size... it is never enough for me.
13" is a compromise between what I was going to get originally (a 15") and what they have recommended for me (a 11"). Recommendations by others on this forum have me decided for the 13"

I have had only two different windshields - the stock one (sucks) and the Madstad, of which I am completely satisfied. I am 6', longer torso, stock seat, and the 11" shield at its highest setting is perfect 95% of the time. I am starting to think about an Ultimate King seat which raises your sitting position enough that I would go to the 13". I read somewhere on here that the 13" all the way down works better than the 11" all the way up.
Yes, it definitely appears that way!
