Default Klock Werkz windshield advice

I’ll be ordering a KW 9” sport flare windshield for my ‘22 RG CVO. The bike is all metallic black on top, then fades to partial emerald green with flames as it goes down. Envious Green Fade it’s called. My question is to go with Black or Dark Smoke for the windshield. Since the bike has a lot of black and I’ll be looking way over the top of the windshield, black is my first choice since the bike is blacked out anyway. Appreciate any feedback. Thanks guys.
John

If the opaque black is what you want, get that. Me personally, I run the dark smoke, because in few situations, I like being able to see through it.

The 9" is so low and close to the black fairing, that dark smoke will pretty much look black. Either way, you arent looking through the 9" so a solid black would work also.
Honestly, pretty much the same thing either way so get whatever you're leaning towards...there wont be a big difference.

I’d do solid black as well, kw 9” is very low so you’re gonna be looking over it regardless.
