F4 Windshield - need honest opinions re shorter height screen reducing buffetting?

[blacklightning]

I guess I am the odd ball here. I just purchased the 21" from Tmag. It looks great, but I am thinking I would rather have something in the 17"-19" range. I plan on getting a ride in Friday or Saturday and can report back. But at 6'-2" I just barely look over the top edge. We will see how this works. But I know that when things warm up, I will be going back to my stock shield

Well, I said I would chime in with my results on the 21". Yes, I do like the tint, and the height is just about right for me in the winter. It does a great job of blocking the wind, while allowing me to see over the top. I didn't have any issues with buffeting, but I do wish it was a bit wider for more protection, without having to purchase the wings. This will definitely be a touring, or winter shield for me. For the summer season, this would not allow enough wind for me, and I prefer my stock height shield for the looks and function. This would also be because I always wear either a modular or minimum of a 3/4 helmet. If I wore a 1/2 helmet, the 21" would be my choice year round. JMHO

Just add the side wings and it will be a year round windshield. They give you alot of air when needed. And block alot of wind when closed.
