Default Memphis Shades - Solar or Gradient?

In my quest for a windshield for those longer trips, I've been considering a couple from Memphis Shades - specifically the the 17" El Paso of 15" Del Rio. I was thinking of going all clear, but it turns out that MS makes only a tinted (Solar) or a gradient version. I realize style choices are a personal thing, but I've attached a couple pics of my bike, which shield MS style/color would get if you were me?

Solar, I dont like the gradient IMO makes the shield stand out to much. The Solar at a distance is almost invisable

For your bike I would get the solar . If you got the gradient one I would do the smoke gradient NOT a blue to match the bike. But I think the solar would look the best.
Just my 2 cents

Sounds like the consensus coming in is to go Solar which is what I was leaning toward, but my preference would have been a clear windshield (no tint) if MS made one, but they don’t, so I guess their Solar will be the next best thing… Thanks for the feedback.
