Screen to low
Hi,
I own a 95’ F3 and I’ve got the problem that I’m a little to long for the bike. This means that at high speed I don’t fit properly behind the screen.The wind is hectic and I loose a lot of speed unless I sit very far backwards and lie almost with my face on the tank. Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

I'm 5'10" and I really don't have a problem with the screen height, it seems just right for me actually. Sometimes I will end up with my backside pressed against the rise in the seat (Where it humps up for the passenger, it's pretty comfy) and my chin on the tank with my clutch hand under it for a rest. This works pretty well for long rides. Of course, this is extreme and just a bit of a tuck can help a great deal, just tilting your head down and scrunching a bit.
I'm almost 6 feet but it is a bit uncomfortable to lie so far down on the tank since the handlebars on the F3 isn't that low and my arms are quite long.

This is a picture of my 97 F3 with a dark smoke double bubble windscreen. It helps out alot more than the stock one that for sure. It bubbles up I think and inch and a half over stock.
