I usually don't tuck that low. Just low enough to look above mine, since mine is solid black. lol

i do, and thats why im against getting a tinted screen (for me anyway). i have a 40 or so mile commute to work (thats one way). if its reeeeeeeeally cold or raining, i'll tuck down w/ my chin on the tank, feet on the passanger pegs and roll! it helps alot w/ cold air, and w/ keeping me dry for the most part.
ha i read this and went and tried it...kinda hard for me im 6'3 i managed to do it but i got a massive cramp in my leg cuz i was riding all day. i fely like an idiot tho when i was doin it haha
hahaha i may look foolish, but you cant call me soaked/cold AND foolish

im 6'3" 240 lbs.... best i can do is get my chin to the top of the shield. I have a DB clear screen going on when my new fairing kit gets here, I might be able to get behind that.

it all depends on how tall you are. personaly I'm only 5'9 and so getting into the tuck doesn't bother me at all. and I also have a tinted wink screen and helmet visor and I can see through them both no problem. but I let my brother ride my bike and he's 6'1 and he always says his back hurts. you just have to do whatever makes you happy.
