Depends what you mean by "better". 

Shorter windscreens / no windscreens are usually better for smoothness of airflow, cooler summer riding, and lack of buffeting. A larger windscreen (like that on the RS) would be better for longer-distance and all weather riding. An even larger windscreen could lead to more buffeting and more heat build-up during summer months, but is likely better for rain protection and for listening to your headset.
