When you feel the turbulence, put your hands (one at a time) along the top edges / sides of the tank and see if that's where your air is coming from.
I found that the wind was coming from underneath, not from over the top, so I went with Hogg Chopps lowers, and stopped the turbulence, with combination of lowers, stock seat, and standard height clearview windshield. I'm 6' with a 31" inseam.

I suspected it was because the cats would add heat, and the MOCO suggests to remove the air baffle in "warm" weather riding to aid in cooling.
I think the most turbulent air comes up from under the fairing, on either side of the tank.

If you decide to go with the Klock Werks shield, I have a 12" tinted that I'll sell for $85 plus shipping. I love how it looks, but I'm 6 feet tall and get a little too much wind on the highway to hear the radio cranking it up to the point of being obnoxious.

I am 5'6" riding an '07 FLTR. Is this shield for the Road Glide or Street Glide?
If it is for Road Glide, I am very interested in buying it from you.

It is a Road Glide shield. It is a fairly dark gray/smoke color. I'll make a note to try and find a picture of the bike with the shield on it when I get home tonight.

Nothing is coming from under the flares in the windshield. I have an 09, and the air baffle came stock with the bike in 09. I noticed they dropped that piece off the 2010's.

Klock Werks makes an asserted effort to provide their dealers with demo sheilds in various sizes that their customers can try out before you purchase.
I would suggest asking your dealer if they offer this then try for yourself which size works best for you.
