Get the 6.5. It looks good and the smaller is no better than stock.

I'm 5'8" and I have the same question........when I get some time I'm going to go to the dealers for an afternoon and try one of their rider test windshields. I don't think it's going to do much in the way of stopping buffeting......my feeling is most of that comes from below/around the lower part of the fairing and gas tank, but it may help a little and they do look good.

5'8" and it works okay but still hits the top of my helmet using the stock seat, but the wife gets even more down draft on her neck because of it. I don't use mine as much as I use to, the looks kind of grew old on me? At this angle most shields wouldn't make the bike looks so funny.

I am 5'10" and use a 6" fast aire and like it, i now wear normal shades without the foam HD brand because buffeting is gone. my brother has the 3.5 klockwerks and loves it, he is 5'7"
