Hey everybody. New to the forum. I just traded in my 06 Wing for an 16 F6B. Rode to Arkansas from New Mexico to pick it up. I had been doing some research on this forum and knew that I needed a Madstad, so I ordered a 17" (I am 6'5") and had it waiting for me when I returned home. I installed it today and realized I am going to return it and get the 15". I can see over it, but I have to sit straight up and lean forward, not the position I normally ride in. I have one on my NC700DCT and it made a huge difference. I knew as soon as I got on the highway that the stock shield on the F6B is pretty much useless. I'm glad I had earplugs for the ride home. Let the farkling begin!
Ride safe,
Pikester
Pulled the trigger and just placed my order for a 13" dark tint.
I just bought a used madstad that is in perfect shape, but it has an 11" on it. I am 6"3 so I may have to go up to at least a 13 maybe even a 15. Things to find out after the purchase...lol. I will have to try it out first to see. I currently have the baggershield and I like it but the passengers are still getting a lot of buffeting. So is the general thought that I would need a 13 or 15? I have stock seat and have no plans to change as of now.
Received and installed the Madstad today. 13" med tint. Looks great, wished I had done this before. Now I have 4 windshields in the garage. Probably like many others on the forum. I changed the seat this summer, and needed to change the shield. Now, I have an adjustable one. Yaa!
I'm 6'3" as well and still debating between the 13 and 15. It's hard to compare their height to other windshield since they rack forward so much more than the factory ones.
