Windshield choice

[xltsport]

My 2013 f6b currently has a baggershield sport shield on it. I like the style of it wider at top,dark tint. But I would like a taller shield as I am 6'1" it has a smooth air flow. I have already slotted the mounting holes all the way to the bottom. It made it better but.... Now I want it taller.

Have you given the 11"-19" Adjustable Baggershield any thought? Best of both worlds. I'm 6'2" and love the versatility.

You can adjust the Baggershield to maximum height of 21 inches with a few wiggles and changes so I am told...Mine is fine and I love the thing as I am only 5'9"and have no buffeting or disturbing wind noise...Maybe call Baggershield and ask about max height. BTW I have the adjustable 11"-19" style....Ride safe

Finally mounted the Madstad I got at last year's rally.
Swapped the 13" for the 11" smoke black.

Looks totally cool and is VERY effective at throwing wind and rain over my 5'9" frame.

I am VERY pleased!

Did you run and try the 13" shield at all? If so... what did you like/dislike about that size... as compared to the 11" that you've now mounted?

I have given up trying to remember all of the different shields I have had on the B.

As Tax mentioned, I use the MRA mini spoiler attached to the stock shield. It is about 90% as effective as the Madstad while the bike retains the same looks. I love it for the summertime when I want air. I fold it in the down position. If I want to listen to the music or need some protection (rain), I raise it up and the wind noise is gone and visibility is the same. The B is not the same bike when you add a full size windshield. JMHO of course.

Will - I couldn't 'comfortably' maintain my vision over the 13" - even in the lowest position. If I use perfect posture, I could just see over it, but i know I'm going to slouch after awhile and the Corbin Smuggler seat is a bit lower than stock so I opted for the 11. Also, I could have done the clear or lightly tinted in 13 and just looked through it, but aesthetics got the better of me and with the darkest coloring, I MUST look over it - especially at night and in tunnels.

Madstad engineering: The more of the windscreen you can get lower, the more airflow gets pushed up and over. So, if it's a toss up between sizes, I would get the bigger size and keep it lower on the mount.

Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Steve
