Has anyone tried the zero gravity sport touring windscreen for their XB12X. It is 3.5 inches taller. I am 6'4 just wondering if gives any better protection or makes buffeting worse.

I have the ZG screen it is very nice. No buffeting ,great quality,looks. I had the Buell tall screen and I thought the buffeting was bad. The ZG doesn't have an upper lip.I am not 6' either but I think the ZG is way better then stock just my two cents.

Stock plugs without issue at any speed. Great shield for highway and cold weather use. I still run my stock shield in the summer because of the amount of airflow the ZG actually cuts out.

I have that ZG on mine this summer. It looks better than it works if you ask me. I am also 6'4" and it barely takes any wind off my chest. For summer its not bad but cold morning are here and am going to have to put my http://www.ceebaileys.com/buell/ulyssesws2.html back on. Not taking anything away from the ZG. It doesnt have any buffeting but dam if it is any better than stock. Also I purchased the hard ware for the buell tall to fasten.

I'm 6'3" and the ZG windscreen makes highway runs much more pleasant than the stock windscreen. It was unpleasant much over 75 before,now I'm in clean air up to as fast as I've had it (90+). I'll most likely never put the stocker back on. I'm using the stock posts.

ZG all the time love it, I could not use the stock one, too much wind on my forearms, the ZG is much better

At 6'1" with the '07 seat I found the Zero Gravity and Buell tall windshields to be about the same. The air flow was just too noisy under my helmet. So, I went back to the stocker for hearing sake. Yes, I wear earplugs. I have a long neck. So, my odd anatomy may be a factor.
