I would recommend the standard height. It can always be cut down to be the perfect size were if the low profile is to short you are just out of luck.

how tall are you? I'm 5'10 and whether I slide my compact up full or down full i get the same amount of wind. Mine comes up between my nouth and my nose and it's just dandy! sorry you can't see the w/s but if your not sure do what bberck said. one or tuh other you will be ok!

Default Compact windscreen
This is the compact windscreen. It is good, although a bit of buffeting does result from its use.

Yes, it is standard. Or at least the taller of the 2. I still get some minor buffeting, but that's life i guess.

the dealership basically told me if your over about 5'10" then go with the taller of the two. I'm 6'1" and have the taller one and was lighting cigarettes behind it from kansas city all the way down to tennessee of course i kept having to pass them to my budies who didn't have that luxury but all is well kept from taking a smoke break as much! haha also if you have a sissybar it make s the windsheild not look so outta place....
