I want to sit-up a little more,but still tuck at speed;I'm 6'1".
I like the standard height bars.
I want to get a windscreen for my FZ6 S2 that allows less turbulent wind to flow around me;to cleanly slice through the wind blast,rather than mounting a flat as a board type screen which can create problems with different loud wind blasts.
I was reading about a product 'Laminar Lip'? that a 6'2" person had installed on his stock and other screens,which he adjusted to let the wind-blast pass over his helmet w/ a slight forward crouch. 🤔

I have no first hand experience to share. From what I've read, the Puig racing (double bubble) is 2 inches taller, and the Puig touring is 4 inches taller. I expect all the cheap 'double bubble' on ebay and amazon are clones of the Puig, but I could be wrong.
 
The FZ fairing - not necessarily the windscreen - creates a lot of turbulence. It’s been discussed for decades. Search is your friend.
Yikes. I've been shocked at the turbulence when up close behind vehicles, compared to my old bike ('06 thundercat). I thought maybe a taller screen would help, but I guess not.
Now I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place, as I don't want to go naked. The 'cat is too cramped at my age, and the turbulence on the FZ may be a deal breaker. :(

Ohh 😕
I have been reading a few different threads on this.
Still researching what will be good for me..

Further to this, my searching has indicated the following, thought I can't verify 100% :
Yamaha 'touring' upgrade screen was 2" taller
Givi screen is 7.5" taller
Calsci is available in 6.5, 8, and 9.5" taller.
The Calsci are also wider on the bottom which should also help with deflection and turbulence.

I was looking at the Cal-Science and it's the most protective,although the least sport looking;be great for touring and their site is very helpful..
I have ordered a 'Powerbronze'(U.K.)which says 'Fazer' on the bottom towards the headlight:their last one.
Part#400-Y118-001 and it's a double-bubble copy;a light smoke tint for $40 shipped Superbike Store LLC in Ann Arbor,Mi.
I'll give it a shot;it looks promising.1000002835.webp
