also ordered the Honda Tall screen, not a screen guy, but it's just ridiculous with the short 1. Will I get enough air on hot days with the tall screen? I wonder if removing the short screen entirely would work on hot days

The one factor that seems absent in the "airflow-vs-screen height" comments seems to be consideration of the rider's height.
I'm 6'1", have the Honda Touring Screen and have been somewhat bemused by the large amount of air, both wind and slipstream, that I feel going down the road. Given the plethora of panting people comments, I was expecting much less
I had a Reckless Fairing with a shorty screen on my Yamaha Stratoliner, and the complement of the fairing design and screen deflected virtually all slipstream around me. I could ride with my helmet visor up under all but the highest slipstream conditions (high speed/headwind).
The CTX's fairing/screen design do not divert slipstream nearly as effectively. That's not a criticism, simply an observation.
So I would take into account rider height when considering aerodynamics and available "cooling" wind.:wink:
