There are many different windshield designs available & what works for one does not work for another. You'll get many different recommendations from here. I have tried multiple and settled on a Fast Aire Aero. Definitely high quality & slightly thicker material plus a lower price compared to a Klockwerks or a HD Windsplitter.

I have the 10" version of this one on my '14 FLHTK

I am 6'1" also and I look well over the top of this shield but the recurve cuts buffeting way down compared to the stock shield.

Clearview ends buffeting. The fairing vent helped. But the Clearview shield ends it. Also helps passenger. I've ran them on 3 bikes. Never knew what buffeting was until I rode without one on my new 2015. Got my Clearview and it was gone. IMO

I have a Memphis Shades spoiler on my 15 SGS and I like it. I am 5'11" and I went with the 6.5 inch. Any taller and I think the 9" would be the right height.

I have the long ride 16" wind shield and its perfect for me. 6'4" tall. I also have a 15.5 windsplitter that I am going to throw on ebay someday.
