I'm 6' and have a #2+6. The wind and buffetting are lots less, but the wind does hit the top of my helmet. I think it's a real crapshoot when it comes to height - of windscreen or rider - because of all the positioning variables. If you tend to ride back or forward, how are your handlebars positioned, are you tall because of long legs or upper body, and on and on....I guess the good news is that Cee Bailey screens have a pretty good resale value on Ebay! Also, from one hot country rider to another, the big screen really reduces the cooling effects of the wind. It's noticibly warmer with the big screen. As for bugs, the big screen is a good thing! The insect season is just kicking in here in Arizona, last week's 290 mile ride coated the screen and the front of the bike quite thoroughly. My helmet had a few splats on the very top, but nothing on the visor. aAso, the build quality of Cee Bailey is exceptional, probably due to all the years of aircraft experience.
