Default Windscreen vis.

I'm going to order a windscreen for my bike. I'm debating between smoked and dark smoke. I'd like dark smoke since its a black bike, but i'm worried about visability tucked down on the highway. I just gotthe bike and have only ridden on backroads close to my house (no permit yet) so i'm not sure what my best option would be. Any input would be appreciated!

You look through that screen? I rarely bother to get that low I could stay like that for all of a minute and I want to go see a chiropractor... I'm impressed. If you need to look through it I'd stay away from a dark tint but if your anything like me you'll never really look through it so go with what you'd think will look nice...

I'm 6'5, no way in hell I'm crunching down that low to see through it. My double bubble is black. Blackety black black black. I dig it.

I run a DB dark smoked. Kinda hard to see through it. Looks nice but I am going back to a clear.

Can some of the girls chime in on this. Preferrably some of the shorter ladies. I still have the clear on mine, but I'm thinking of black. Opinion?

I tuck into my windscreen when I hit over 90 and it is a db dark smoked.
