I look over mine. Like Newhawk, it'd need to be several inches taller for me to see through. On my old scoot, I had a tall windshield. Looked through that one.

I've got the 58346-06 QD compact shield and I've found that since I installed a 2" tank lift and added a fork bag about 6k miles ago that I have very little buffeting. Like Ronny says, it should be at nose level, looking over. The only time that hasn't worked is during a major rainstorm. Then I'll duck down a bit and look through the shield... or better yet, pull off the road.
