Default what windshield for springer classic

Which detachable windshield are you springer folks running, the king size or compact? I like the tint of the compact but it lookskinda small.

Not real sure which model, but it's about 18 and a halfinches tall from the headlight cutout, and about 20and a half inches wide across the horizontal bar. I'm 5 feet 10, and I'm looking just over the top with the stock saddle. Good protection overall and still feel the some breeze. I also added the Memphis Shade lowers to knock off the wind coming off my knees and tank and blowing "up" in my face. Now the bike is a great ride at any speed, and you can hardly notice the clear lowers.
