I think its the 14" and its great for me as far as wind goes. I am running a lower profile seat (Danny Grey) and I'm about 6'1" and I couldn't be happier with the wind protection. I can see just over the top of it which is what I like. They are pretty spendy though. I think I paid about $250 for it but it is much thicker and comes with its own hardware. It doesn't vibrate and shake around like some I've seen.

I have a CB 15" SSC Euro & I like it fairly well, I have been riding with my 12" Windsplitter most of the summer though. It has almost the wind protection of the CB, but I like the looks better. The nice thing about the HD WS is that most dealers carry the demo shields that you can try, so you're not out the $$ if you don't like it, I'd give that a try.
