Thanks, I'm going to try that.

I believe the LRS flat top works well for the passenger, but you have to make sure you get the right height....
Thanks for the intel. I'm running an 8" elite now, and think I'm going to bump up to a 9" flat-top elite and try that. I should be able to just look over that. If that does not work, I'll just put a stock smoked version on and call it a day.

The wife is out recovering from a surgery right now, so it's going to be 2-4 months before I can try out these ideas. I'll give an update down the road and let y'all know how it turned out.

THANKS AGAIN EVERYONE!!!

I'd be willing to part with it if your willing to pay for the shipping to get it to you.
Just curious about the elite, was the only thing you disliked was the 10”. I’m 6’4” and am looking for a solution to buffering on the top of my helmet.

16" LRS Thresher on my bike. Slouched i look thru but sitting up straight i see over. Wife wears a FF and has never complained about noise or buffeting. When and if i wear my FF Shoei i don't notice any buffeting.
