Works fine for me at 6 foot. At 5' 4" I would wonder if it would be too tall to look over as designed.

At 5' 4", the stock is probably too tall!!!:icon_lol: Just kidding, at your height you should be able to keep the madstad in the lowest position which is where it looks best too. I am 5' 11" and I use the 11" shield raised up almost to the top of adjustment. Jim:lolup:

Wantone--That could be a bit "iffy", I'm afraid. At 5'9", I'm running mine about 5/8" from the full down position and it's just right. Unless you have a long torso, you might wind up looking through the top, even with the wind screen all the way down. If you're coming to the Franklin rally, you'll be welcome to check mine out to make sure.

How many durn windshield threads are ya gonna start!!!??!!! LOL!!!

I think this makes 3 or so now,,, Heck, I'm outta breath just trying to follow them all!!! LOL!!

:cheers:

I thought you we're leaning towards a B-Shield? :shrug:

(You don't have to run the 'stad at the recommended 60 degrees,,, You can follow the rake of the shield 'base' to lay it down some,,,)
