I should have my new Clearview recurve extra-wide tinted shield here in the near future. Cant wait to try it out since as we all know the stock windshield is borderline garbage. I plan on using the stock shield as a dog sled...haha.

Just my opinion but any good quality windshield will do.
For me, the most important factor is getting the height that works best for me.
I like to look "over" the top of the windshield, but I still like to have it high enough to provide wind protection for my face and also to prevent the "buffeting" of wind onto my helmet.
I sit a little "high" in the saddle of my '13 CVO Ultra and I currently have a Freedom Shield "re-curve" 11", light smoke model, which I like.
The thought is to have the top of the windshield level with the tip of your nose, but with a re-curve windshield the top of the windshield can be a tad lower and you will still get good wind protection.
I've had it for two seasons and I have one deep scratch and a few micro scratches but the next one I order will be tad (1/2 to 1") shorter.
