I looked around but I have not seen a comparison between these two mini shields...

I like the looks of the Dart Flyscreen, but I don't think it's adjustable. The Triumph Flyscreen seems to be adjustable based on posts that I've read.

Any comments are welcome, but I do have two specific questions:

Can anyone tell me if the Dart Flyscreen is comfortable for a 6'2" rider?

&

How much adjustment do you have with a Triumph Flyscreen?

Thanks!

I have the Triumph flyscreen Did not know it when I bought it but I needed the adjustable factor. Took about a half day of riding to find the sweet spot for no buffet riding.

I use a Dart on my SM. It keeps the wind off my chest at highway speeds, noticed a great improvement right out of the box. Haven't tried any adjustable ones, but I'm real happy with the looks and performance of my Dart. I don't think height would matter, it doesn't block airflow to my head anyway and I'm 6' even.


ride when I can, work when I have to

Thanks for your replies. After my post, I bought the Triumph model from a member. Followed advice of another 6 footer by putting it as vertical as it would go. Looks good and works well for me.
