    I had the MADSTAD and I returned it. Great windshield for warmer weather because of its adjustability but way too small for the colder climates. They are well built and have excellent customer service. I bought and have rode with the F4 and LOVE it. Its big enough to ride on the coldest of days with almost no buffeting. My thoughts.

    How does it look on your F3? I'm 5'10" how tall would you suggest. One of the problems i have is the F4's price tag. but i guess if i want full protection mayby i might have to save for this one.

    I also am 5'10" I purchased the 18" and found it to short At hi-way speeds. Consider asking for a couple in.of extra width also .

    I'm 5'11 and I sit on an Airhawk+rubber cushion. I look way over my winshield in its most upright position without any head buffeting. Its a drop dead gorgeous astetically pleasing clear windshield. It installs in about 15 minutes. The F4 gets a two thumbs up from me. The MADSTAD takes two hours to install (not really an issue) and is VERY small for the colder climates but they have EXCELLENT customer service. My thoughts.

    Update....if you are 5'10" you should be PERFECT for the F4. Look at my profile pic, it has the F4 on it.

    Default windshield

    As I said I have the 20" but I did have them extend the width 1" on both sides. It took me about 30 minutes to install. It was fun!

    You can ask them to make it wider. I had mine 2" wider on each side. I like it.

    They did not offer that when I purchased my shield, depending on which F3 you have. Regardless, it did not cover anywhere near the F4. I had/have both..... I know.
