This sceen started out at the 91/2 in from Mark at CaSci. The wind noise was terrible at that height so I called and asked him to cut the size down to 6 in. above stock, figuring 8 in. would not be much different from the 91/2. He graciously did so and the screen is much better now. Wind on my torso is greatly reduced over stock. I'm 5'10" and find the wind noise slightly better than stock. However, even being better than stock, I don't find it reduced to no noise and given I like the look better with the lower stock, I decided to sell this w/s. I purchased it maybe 4 wks ago so probably have 400 miles on it. Hope this answers your question.
