Hi Ian, thanks for taking the time to post pics, they are very interesting and provide yet another interesting variation to the normal screens out there. At the moment I have a Clearview 17" tinted model

which I am happy with but personally I now wish it was an inch or 2 higher. My reason for this is I am 6' 1" tall and when I measured myself using the clearview measurement guide

I had also just installed hagon shocks but with incorrectly rated springs for my weight. Hence when I sat on my bike I was unaware the sag was lowering me further than it should and as such, my screen appeared higher. Well I now have the correctly weighted springs and with it, a screen I would prefer was like I said, an inch or two higher.

So, my options are to either keep the original which I might add is fine and doesn't buffet me but I just feel one a little higher would be perfect for ME , or I have considered adding a second tier (similar to yours) using a portion of the old summer screen I have lying around.

Anyway, can I ask you how high the screen is above the top of the headlight when fully extended? Once I know that I can consider my options from that point. Thanks again.





The extended length of the screen is 19.5" .....if you're looking to have the top of the screen 19.5" above the headlight then the screen would need to be pretty much vertical (not good for buffeting)... it will all depend on the angle that you set to determine the physical height of the screen above the headlight....

Try cutting out a 19.5" template from card and simulate how high it would be from the top of your headlight? Might give you a better idea?


If at first you don't succeed....lower your standards!! ------------------------------------
