I had a look at some of the pictures on the maker's site and it shows that it is adjustable. How much downward adjustment would you say there is from where you have it now? If there's any, how close to the lights do you think it would go?

Cheers.
It's at the lowest setting on the front hinge (shield side). I plan to look at it some more this week (didn't ride due to the major rain we are having). I may even come up with a different way to mount it and bring it closer to the headlights.
Thanks for the info and please do post your results because its just the kind of screen I've been looking for, its only that I couldn't live with it mounted as it is in your pictures.

That's a real nice looking screen but to me it looks like its mounted too high, about 3-4", like it needs to be closer to the headlight. Any way to adjust that? Could you post some pics of the mounting from the inside?
Being 6'1" the hight is not bad for function...but the looks are not that great to me. But I need to ride it and see how it goes over a good ride. This Sunday is plan for me and the wife!
Well just from the ride to work this morning....it works very well....I even bumped it up to 80 and 90 mph and it was very nice....wind hits me right at the top of the head. Very stable and the looks are starting to grow on me a bit.
When you say the wind hits the top of your Head,is there any buffeting?.
The reason i've been looking at this screen is because on my FXD i had the HD touring shield & the Buffeting was chronic with wind comeing from underneath the Screen,i wondered if maybe a smaller Screen mounted higher might not suffer from Buffeting.
