We've got the exact same bike, Orange Road Glide, and have a 6" dark smoke Klock Werks. Love it...I'm 5'4" and it works great when I ride and my husband is 5'10" and works great for him as well. I've also got a Klock Werks 6-1/2" on my Street Glide.
Personally think there is no other way to go than with Klock Werks when it comes to windshields.

Same as most others. OEM = horrible,
Klockwerks - looks the best but not much better for wind buffeting.
Clearview +1 - only way to go. All buffeting now comes from the bottom. Lowers will fix that. (Although there is very slight mirror contact with the windshield at full steering lock)
Reach seat; 5'10" 32" inseam.

I have tried:
Clearview +2" worked o.k, looked like a barn door, hit handelbars at full turn
Cee baileys 15" euro, wind hit me in eyes, looked good, would also hit handelbars if they were where i like them.
Cee baileys 16" euro, worked pretty good small amount of buffeting, looked good, hits handelbars.
Windvest 14", works the best looks decent, nice fit, plenty of handelbar clearance, fair price.
Windvest is the winner for me, you can have your bars wherever you like, plenty of room to clean the dash, great quality and price, extremely fast shipping, and works well.
By the way i'am 6'2"

I have an 07 Mirage Orange also. I'm 5'8 and wear a 32 inseam. I have been through stock, klock, and now Cee Bailey Euro. I followed the sizing chart on their web site and I am very happy. Looks great and feels pretty good too. Little bit of wind but good vis and I can hear my speakers again.
Good Luck,
Hood

I have an 09 FLTRSE that had the 6.5" KW on it when I bought it, looks great BUT thats it, no protection at all. Then I bought a 12" KW, same thing, alot of buffeting and everything is directed right into the mirrors, small tunnel of protection for rider, none for passenger.
So I ordered a 12" Windvest from DRV-TWIN as they were the cheapest at $135 shipped............thats was 6 weeks ago and gave up, got my refund. I have seen a seller on Ebay out of Myrtle Beach had them in stock but was $30 higher......might bo to them.

I'm 6'4" with a 36" inseam and have a comfort stitch seat from H-D which sits me a little lower than stock. the Klock Werks 16" works great for me.
