I am getting ready to buy a taller windshield for my 2015.....I am running the Bullet Speed canvas top on it....I am 6 ft tall and I was hoping for some feedback between the F4 +7 or the MadStad 13".....any pros or cons of each would be appreciated along with real life feed back.....Thanks

Just bee sure that you can see over it in case it fogs up. You "WILL" know why if it ever fogs up on you. Also understand that it will be hotter in the cockpit with the taller wind screen. Less air flow. It took me about 3 day rides at 100 degrees to give away a + 6. I run the stock 2015/2016 wind screen that I cut down to the center brace (3 inches) I am 5 ft 6 inches and around 140,000 miles between the two Slingshots. Fla. - Ga - South and North Carolina - Tenn. - Ala. - Vir. I have not worn a helmet since 2015 anywhere, ball cap only.

I saw the adjustable MadStad is able to allow airflow from the bottom of the windshield for cooling when you raise it up....just wondering if that works as it says it is suppose to?

Now, that I know nothing about and have not heard many people talking about that wind screen.

I love my MadStad windshield. It allows easy adjusting until you get the right feel.
Here are some older pictures of mine - Hindsight, I would not order a dark tint again - makes driving at night a PITA.

I have F4 +5 and have had this size since new of 2015..
I had to replace for all my fiberglas work and I destroyed it designing new body.
But really gives you good protection..
Only downfall is with turbo I get some fumes when deaccelerating nd doing to stop..

The 'fumes' from exhaust depend on lots of different factors.

I wonder at times if it is the pipe that comes off turbo and drops in front of passenger foot compartment could cause this issue..I was thinking of making a hole in
exhaust and welding bung to connect it there ??

I purchased a MadStad 13" adjustable and love it. I have it adjusted all the way up and it does have nice airflow through the bottom. Had a 6" on originally and over 70 mph I wanted to wear a helmet but with this windshield you get nice airflow and not all the buffeting. The best part is my wife loves it.

I have a F4-5 for sale. I am bringing it to Maggie Valley to try to sale it. Can put it on and ride with it to see if you like.

Yes it does work, I have one.

Very true, I found that removing the muffler & adding side pipes will take away the fumes & the heat on the passengers side.

Which one do you have? and how is it against buffering in the cockpit?

Mine is 11" from top to bottom, I brought it in 2016 & not sure if they still make an 11" now...There's no buffering in the cockpit...

I learned that lesson with a tinted
shield on a motorcycle helmet. I had to follow my friends tail light, that was all I could see.

The Madstad wind screen works just as advertised!
