Well. I'm getting buffeting.... called Memphis shades and they said there 17" shield is designed for 6' person. I'm 6'4. So that explains the turbulance

Looks like I'll be going for shorter option in windscreen to get clean air over the fairing

Not to bring up a thread that has been quiet for a few months, but I'm looking at ordering a Road Warrior soon as well, and have been debating on the windshield height. I'm a 5'6" rider with a full face. Is it too simple to think that I would need to go with an 11" windshield to avoid buffeting and maintain a safe and comfortable ride?
