If you want to cut it down this is what I do.

Tape both sides of the shield with masking tape. This protects it during the cutting stage.
Make a template of the shape and height you want using poster board or some kind of light cardboard.
Trace the shape onto one side of the shield with a sharpie.
You can cut it with a jig saw but a band saw is better. It will take about a minute.
When it's cut I take a file to the edges using light pressure. Then a bit of work with some fine sandpaper.
Pull the tape, fine tune the edge and yer done.
That's it. And you can't tell I cut it myself.

Suggestions wanted: 2017 Ltd (per image) with stock seat. 6-0 rider and 5-8 passenger. Stock shield isn't cutting it...the buffeting gets rough. Neither of us wants to have a huge shield (as in tall or wide) out front. Obviously staying with a look-over design and height. Aesthetics matter, but not trying to get an aggressive look. Think touring.


LRS model to recommend?
