Another wind shield question. F3 limitd
Hello all
I was just wondering if any of you RT riders that have the 25 inch windshield on their ride could tell me the height from glove box/gas tank to top of windshield in the highest position.. I had a 2010 RT-S with the 25 inch shield and am trying to figure out a f3t equivalent. I'm 6'3 and the head buffeting is horrible. F4 customs has multiple options and I liked the coverage of my 2010.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

I can tell you that the OEM windshield on a 2010 RT is actually 27" from bottom to top...
You sit much lower into the F3, than you do the RT. I'm not sure if you can easily compare windshield heights between these two bikes...

Where did the top of your RT shield come to in relation to your face? (Bottom of chin, bottom of nose, eye level etc? ). If you know that, you know where you want the top of the F4 screen to be on your F3-L and can use the measurements on the F4 fitting thread to determine the height you want. I'll post the thread link in a second (hopefully). They are a big screen though, so I don't know how you would go with your "sporting" look).

I'm 6'7" and bought the 25" (awaiting delivery), but it should come to the bottom of my nose.

F4 Height for the Touring and limited
Here is the link that I did on the heights. We are always ready to talk to anyone about the heights and the shields so don't hesitate to give us a call anytime. I did alot of testing and riding on the F3 before making this shield and I think you will be well pleased with the results.

Hello. Just wondering what you inseam is and if your looking over the top or through the shield. Calsci height table says a large for me but sounds like you got the XL. It's nice to get input from someone my size. Thanks.

Am 6'5" and got the 25" form my 2016 F3T. Am looking through the top of the windscreen. Made a big difference with the head buffeting and while riding in the rain. Lee
