Title: Tall windshield?
Post by JRLeathercraft on 05/18/13 at 13:00:32

Hello,

Any recommendations for a tall windshield.

I have one, but curious if anyone has a taller one that your hat won't blow off?

Do up your chinstrap. ;)

Well, I always wear a helmet, the 'hat blowing off' was more of an expression - Easier to visualize more so than 'wind pushing me' ;D

I bought an 18" Slipstreamer Billet. It is mildly adjustable for height +- 3". What I like about it is it is fairly narrow, so you get the cooling without the bugs in the face, and it doesn't act like a sail in crosswinds.
BTW, you should have your windshield low enough so you can see 25' in front of you without looking through any part of the windshield for safety.

I'm 6ft, and had to cut 1 1/4" off the top to be able to see over it, like Arteacher says. But I'm not much help because I don't remember the name brand of it. But its quite wide also, kinda like a fairing.....almost.
