    Yes, my Medium is in the highest setting. About 15.75" high.

    Maybe I'll try that deflector. Not sure how it's going to work with a recurve shield though....
    If your thinking of changing, go with the extra-large from Clearview not the large. I just received my large and i'm getting buffeting with it. Somehow my order got screwed up and I never caught it on the invoice cause I ordered the extra-large.

    I don't see the option for an Extra-Large; pertaining to the F6B selection that they offer

    ???

    That's my problem then, I originally placed my order for my 14 Kawasaki Vaquero and ordered the X-large. When I traded in that bike for the F6 I called Clearview and got them to change the order for the new bike. If they don't have an X-large for the F6 I guess that explains why I got a large instead. Guess I should have checked before I piped up and told you wrong,... duh!

    I've put one on my Klockwerks recurve shield and it works well. I rarely use it, because it sits right in my line of sight. But on a long Interstate trip, it really cuts down any wind, noise and buffeting.

    Well.. they say that hindsight is 20/20... and I should have bought a large Clearview instead (as Fla_rider suggested), but Wing'n it says the large didn't work out for him.

    What to do?

    I can live with the medium Clearview. It's not that bad. But I'd like something better. Money in no object regarding a windshield... but I hate buying and trying different ones; and relegating hanging them to the nail inside of the shed.

    ..not sure if an added piece of a windshield above the recurve is going to be smart either. It's a different airflow... being pushed up and then bubbling back over the seat area... And... I do not want to be riding around with a see thru "barn door" attached to the front of my motorcycle.

    I was playing with my OEM low cut stock windshield today... maybe I'll sacrifice it to the jig saw and see what happens.

    I have a bagger shield dark smoke on my bike (not the 2 piece flip). I like it...... But it could be a little taller. I thought about buying the same one trimming the bottom to match the fairing and mounting it with spacers similar to the madstad. 😯
