Alright I am looking at going for a taller windshield, but what has worked out the best for everyone here. I was thinking about the sport tour from zero gravity. What has some of you went with and your opinions. I am 5' 9" and don't have any real trouble tucking in I just want more wind block to not have to ride in full tuck all the time.

I have the Zero Gravity Double Bubble and in hindsight may have chosen the Sport Tourer instead as it seems to have a larger surface area to help distribute the wind better. I am 6'2" and the Double Bubble did raise the wind from hitting my chest to hitting just above my neck while I am sitting up. I just need to tuck in a little and the wind goes right over my head now.

Corsa windshield from Erik Buell Racing is fantastic.

What is the difference between the corsa and the sport touring windscreens? or Is there a one?

Not sure, honestly. Compared to stock, the Corsa is much taller with a bubble you can really tuck behind.

Think of the Corsa not as a double-bubble, but more of just one big bubble.

There is a thread Al Lighton (American Sport Bike) started that has pix of all the ZG screens.

I think it's this one -

I just received my Corsa from Al, on Christmas eve no less. I like it, that said, I haven't gotten it up to speed yet to notice the difference I was hoping to get. Ask again when the weather clears

I have been very well pleased with the Sport Tour from ZG. At 6-4 and 250# it lets me tuck easily and it's improving my accelleration.
