In my opinion Memphis Shades Trigger Lock Windshields are the most practical.

agreed

I put a Big Shot Memphis Shades windshield with Trigger-lock on my 2019 Rebel 500. I transferred it my Rebel 1100 when I got that bike. At the time I got the 1100 MS didn't have a specific windshield for it, but they do now.
 
Trying the Puig. Really removed the human sail and pressure on the chest effect, though noise to the helmet is increased. For $100ish and easily removable I figured it was worth a shot.

if you Google fitting windshields to bikes most if not all say the top of the windshield should be high enough to be able to just see over it which transfers air flow up over your head/helmet.....anything lower and you just transfer buffeting to your body just over the height of shield. In the case of your pictures that looks to be upper chest/neck area that will receive the air flow and buffeting.
