I'm almost 5'10" in the AM and 5'9" by mid afternoon I just ordered the Cee Bailey 13" with vent. Interesting, but when I measured the way they wanted, I came up with 15", but if it is anywhere in my sight line it'd be annoying, so I'd rather slouch a little if necessary!. When I called, the order guy didn't ride- I could tell, so I asked to speak to someone who did- he had the production guy call me back. I was glad he didn't take offence. Good customer care all around...now I'm just hoping (actually closer to praying) the height is right...The rider who called back was pretty adament that the 13 would be OK. If they call the 11" good for most, the 13 has got to be plenty high for a shorty like me.I really only want to do this once- till the shield needs replacement.

OH I'm telling all th8is because posts like this (and follow-up) really helped me decide...thanks guys. I'll follow up as soon as I get, mount and try it.
