After some searching on here it sounds like most like the Z Gravity screen.

I am 6 2'' and getting a large amout of air in my shoulders and is leading down the bars and when passing a large semi I get a fair amount of buffet that is then trasfered down to the bars.

I have clean air on the helmet now will this still be the case hopefully??

Now my next question is to go clear or light smoke?? Mostly ride in the day but I have been known to do some late rides that end up with about 1hr of ride in the dark. Bike it Orange.

Thanks

I'm 6'2' - the ZG +4 by itself was worse that the std screen, so I went back to the std one.

Others here have said that the Palmer brackets with a +4 works well - perhaps that is the answer.

YMMV

You can always add the brackets later right?? You say +4 is the the touring one they offer correct??

ZG+4 works well with Palmer brackets - (he also makes a screen that I think is a bit wider than ZG) but I'm only 5'8" - so not sure, with your height. It shouldnt be so tall you cant see over it - a lateral line between top of windscreen to your bottom lip is the max. Smoke looks nice on the Uly.
