The website says 2 or 3 inches but its actually around 6-8 inches taller , I didnt like it though it was affective against windnoise . If I wanna look THROUGH a windshield , Ill drive my car .

Wisner27: I measured my GIVI at bottom center, to top center, and got 28". Remember that's measurement of the total plastic screen separate from the vehicle. Some of the 28" will "disappear" when mounted. :rollin:
&nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp Today, I installed my GIVI. I measured the factory W/S from the same points as on the GIVI. It measured 22". The 6" difference in the screens doesn't mean that the GIVI is fully 6" HIGHER then the stock W/S. BUT almost! Remember there is an angle rear-ward involved.
