6" inch windshield on SG

Currently using 4" windshield thinking about going to 6". Does the 2" make a big difference?.

Go with an 8" and you will be very happy. Tall enough to function well yet short enough to still look cool! Bryan

Huge difference, the 4 inch is useless. 8" is perfect for 5' 10" rider. But you can get the 6" in black. Looks much cooler.

You can get an 8" in solid black. I got one from Fastaire. The only thing is I think I need a 9.5" or 10" as I am 6 foot and the 8" windshield seems to be a little short, but it is good enough for now.

RE: 6" inch windshield on SG

I have the 8". I'm 6'2". Seems to work ok but a lot of the wind buffeting comes from underneath also. Put your hand down near the tank at highway speeds and you'll feel it near the tank and your knees.
