    I really like my f4 wide and tall. Been using it for a few years now and really like the protection it gives me.

    I have the Blue Ridge on mine (an F3 also)
    I must be just the right size and shape because it works really well for me.
    I always ride with my Shoei Neotec and zero buffeting issues.

    I have the Tall Boy Mid Height on my F3T and I like it. If I hadn’t gotten a great deal on it I likely would have gone with an F4 Customs.

    Default neither

    I had the Blue Ridge on my F3 and other than protecting my hands, it was worthless. I'm 6'2" and at freeway speeds the turbulence hit me just below neck level. Save your money and go with a F4. I replaced my Blue Ridge with a 32" and now I can ride with my face plate open up about eighty on the freeway with no buffeting at all.

    32”? I don’t think the windshield in my car is that big.

    i was told this is how you measure for a windscreen... don't know if this is correct, because my 27" screen measures much less...

    Donnar, the 2 windshields your talking about work on different models and won't work on the same model.
    The Tall Boy works on the F3T & F3L. The Blueridge fits the F3, F3S & Daytona. I tried the Blueridge on my F3 and the head buffeting was terrible, but I'm 6'4". Sounds like it may work for shorter people.

    I see your in central MN. What city are you near?

    We're practically neighbors, I'm in Cold Spring. I've got over 22,000 miles on my F3, so I've a pretty good idea of many of the ins & outs. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions or maybe we need to go for a ride sometime.
