[QUOTE="Checkswrecks, post: 863540, member: 3536"] I'm 6' with the same bike and with the stocker on the low setting my head is in clean air, so it just sounds surprising that you get buffet at 6'3". Since you're willing to try different things, here's a few thoughts. Take the windshield totally off and go for a spin. My thought is to begin with your head and shoulders in clean air, then start increasing height. If you get no rattle without a windshield, you'll have a starting point. From there you can start working higher with duct-taped cardboard to see the height your noise starts at. As two alternatives: (1) Put your seat on the low setting and try the VStream again. It ought to give you more than an inch of shield coverage. You can crouch to get more coverage yet. (2) Since the VStream is a barn door, try taping cardboard over it to raise the top edge to nose height so you can still see over it. You can trim down from there. [/QUOTE]
