Tall Windscreen Recommendation

I really want a taller windscreen because almost all my riding is highway or 2 lane. What do you guys have that puts the wind up higher and over the top. I am aware that it could wind up deflecting the wind squarely into my faceshield if I get it wrong so I want to use your knowledge instead of my possible mistakes. Thanks.

I like my Zero Gravity Touring screen.

How much higher would you estimate it places the wind. Right in the neck or on the top of the helmet is a big difference. My neck can become bothersome after playing college football and wrestling. (Had to keep a scholarship somehow.)

Hmm, haven't really thought about it. It is a narrow screen so your shoulders still get wind (which helps since too little wind would tire you as the wind helps support your weight) but with that said, if I sit up tall I do still get wind on my neck, but sitting normal I don't get a blast there.

Depending on your height, I'm 6'4, I think the best windscreen is the stock one.
