i have the 9" on my batwing. if they had a 10.5 i'd be happy to buy one. its just a little short but im 6'2. but most of the wind i get at speed comes from deflection off my legs not over the shield.

also i ride with the visor on my ff up. and that cuts a good chunk of noise/buffetting.

I think that this is the issue. I definitely agree that it seems like the air is beginning to "distort" before it gets near me. Even as I move around the seat (leaning far forwards, back, feeling where it begins/ends with my hand) it just seems like the "sweet spot" is way to small and won't ever get to me with the Spoiler shield...unless I sit directly on the tank, haha.
