Thanks for the pics, I just called to change my screen to tint. Called just in time, they plan to start fabricating my s10 screen today. I will post pics when I get it.

Great pics of the V-strom tinted shield. Thanks again for posting. I may also be calling Parabellum tomorrow to change my order to "tinted." It's only $10 more, and I think it would really enhance the look on the black/Raven S10.

I'm 5'9" and was told by the vendor to order the 22" (med) model.
Can anyone comment on the size recommendation?
Did anyone wish they had gotten a taller/shorter shield?

5'10" here and put on a 24" this weekend. Considering I am seated higher with a Day Long seat I see over the Parabellum by about 3". Wind is hitting such that I can ride with the face shield up and no ear plugs and it is quiet and smooth. Profound improvement.

I am about 6ft, 32 inseam & went with the 24 in clear. Like the previous posters, it made a huge difference over the stock unit. The wind flow just hits the top of my helmet & my shoulders. I also went with the CeeBailys side wings, which I installed at the same time. I now have a huge quiet pocket of air. Quiet like being tucked in tight to the stock shield but sitting upright in normal riding position. I will still be wearing ear plugs though. It will be nice during the colder months here in CO. Not sure about the summer time, even though it was 70 yesterday. After my first ride yesterday, it will take some getting used to looking thru it on steep uphills & downhills. On flat ground I'm looking over the top by about 3-4 inches. Side winds are more noticeable but I would take a little bit of side wind disturbance over the buffeting/drafts/noise of the stock shield anyday. I also noticed that I don't have the wind gushing up under my new Arai Signet Q helmet anymore. I too can ride with the face shield up at speed now. I am very pleased with overall performance of the shield. More time in saddle will confirm.
