Default Hell Cat or Alley Cat???

I'm looking to get a windshield in the next month or two and narrowed it down to either the Hell Cat or the Alley Cat. I like the looks of the Hell Cat but don't like the handle bar mounts and the windshield looks too smal for a large body-typ guy like me standing at 5'11''. I don't want something huge and I don't really care about the wind hitting me for the most part but I'm not liking the bug splatter on my face shield and then depending on where said bug hits the bike, it could go under the facr shield (already had that happen when a cricket hit my head light doing 70 on I-35W). Anyway, friends tell me a windshield will make riding on the highway more pleasurable so I want on but not a huge one. As far as I can tell there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the Alley Cat and it looks a little bigger than the Hell Cat. Can someone post some pictures of the Alley Cat on their M50, along with images of the mounting hardware? I'd also like to know what bad things can be said about the Alley Cat... as well as the Hell Cat. I'm not locked into getting one of these, this is just what I'm thinking right now. Does anyone else have a suggestion on a medium sized windshield? More than likely it wouldn't be used every day but probably most days.
