I beleive you're wrong Peter. At 6'4 it makes sence to looks for T-top 
and run with tops off. You will have open sky limiting your helmet then.
This is based on my (6'2) personal experience. When it's raining and I 
have to run with tops I'm hitting glass top with my helmet frequently 
(and I remove shades so it's just glass top).
