Looking for advise, I"m 5'9" ride a 2011 SG and desparately need a windshield a bit higher than stock. I know this subject has been covered in this forum before, but just wondering if someone could offer some advise on what height windshield I should get given my height and that I don't want to look through the windshield.
From what I can gather the recurve is windhshield I should consider.

Thanks
Louie

 

Im 5'11" and I bought a longride windshield, Dark tint 8 inch ultra(Has a curved edge and I luv it. about 70 bucks also, hundred bucks cheaper the A klockwerks.

 

I'm 6'2 and I use a 8" dark tint KW shield, if I was any shorter I would probably look through it though.

 

Many HD dealers now stock and sell Klockwerks windshields. Usually they have demo ones you can throw on your bike and try out. I am 5-11 and run a 8.5" on mine. Works great.

I did try the 6.5" but above 60mph the buffeting was to much.

 

I am 6' and just like carver said if I was any shorter I would probably look through it. It's a great windshield though. Try one out before you buy!

 

I'm 5'10 riding an ultra with 8 1/2" KW. Could even go taller without worry about looking through it, so you should be fine with 8 1/2. The taller the better for protection. I still get side buffetting with the KW.

 

Thanks for all of your quite responses. I think I'll see if my local Harley dealer has one for me to try out. From what I've heard looking through a recurve isn't what you want to do anyway, whether you're adverse to looking thru a windshield or not.

I'm 5'10" and I've got the 6.5 and it's just right for me and one hell of a difference than stock

 

5' 10" using Long Ride's Classic recurve 6 inch shield,keeps that street glide look. . .I did have seat modded by mean city cycles with a 2" drop though also. Edit:sorry didn't pay attention that you were requesting for Klockwerks
