That video is kinda what I did. I sat on bike and had tape measure touching top of light being most windshields I've seen were measured from top of light cut out. Looking towards tape the taller Spartan, 18.5", looked like eye level so little too high. The medium, 16.25", looked to hit bout top lip or so. Hopefully it's close enough. If not I can just buy the screen replacement.

That's about right, you never want to be looking through the windshield, rather, OVER it. For me (5'8", 170lbs) 19" is perfect on my FXDWG and FLSTC. But there's nothing like actually trying one.

I have the 18" LRS on my Heritage. I'm 5'11-ish.
Works great. Need the fangs for the excess air from
below.
My compaint with the LRS (clear) is, it always has this
haze to it. I've never used harsh cleaners, always a micro
fiber cloth. In the sun it's very noticable. The clear lexan
the Harley shields are made of is very clear.

Here is a video on the LRS site that shows you how to decide on what size to buy. Worked for me.
