Default Softail Slim Windshield

I have a 2016 Softail Slim and would like to add a windshield. I'm looking for something to divert the wind, and not necessarily cover my face/vision Suggestions?

I had a wind vest on my '15 slim. it kept the wind off my chest on the highway reducing fatigue from the wind pushing me back from the bars at high speed. If you get caught in the rain it helps a lot too.
