I have one of their fairings - fits well, very sturdy, and the little dash leaves you a place to put a clock, thermometer etc.

I bought the superbike with the shorter windshield.  I am 5'8" and after riding for a while I think that I might have a quieter ride with the taller shield - the short one does keep the wind off my chest and make highway riding much better.  I get buffeting around my helmet - note that I have installed gen-mar handlebar risers to accomodate my bad back so I sit up quite a bit higher than if the bars were left in a stock position.
