    Hi guys have taken the stock screen off my 07 glide and put a 7 inch wind splitter on looks good but getting helmet buffeting at highway speeds .The standard screen was a bit better but top of screen was right at eye level so was always looking over or under. Do I go taller or shorter? Have a 3000km road trip coming up and I am trying to sort it out beforehand Your comments and experience would be much apprecciated Have only just got back into touring after 25 years off bikes.

    I'm 5'10" and have a 10" screen on mine. If I sit up very straight, I can see over the top in rain etc, but sitting normally in a semi crouched position I look just under the top with only a minor hint of distortion at times if I worm around a bit. Go for comfort , fuck the look. I've got a big trip later this year and know exactly what you are thinking about. I'm going for a higher screen , rider back rest, highway pegs, MP3 plugged into the radio (plus two ibuprofen and a can of mothers twice a day). I'm older and arthritic....
