Anyone use this Windshield?
 

This windshield is really cheap and okay looking. Has anyone used the Slipstreamer Tombstone hd-3 windshield (they have it in clear too)? http://www.cheapcycleparts.com/products ... hield-tint

It says that it fits the GZ250 and is quick release which is what I would prefer. Any thoughts?

I like the look of the"tombstone".I had the"Spitfire" the only thing I didn't like about it was it was it is hard to keep steady.It mounts only on the bars.Windshields that mount on the bars & forks are much sturdier and worth the extra money.I can't tell if the "tombstone" mounts to bars & forks or just bars.If it only mounts to bars I would look for one that mounts at four points.

The Tombstone is not going to provide much relief from buffeting as its quite narrow. It also has hardware for 1" handlebars. The GeeZer has 7/8" bars.

The Spitfire was the first windshield I installed on my GeeZer and I thought it was a worthless cheap POS. The fork mounted police style windshield I put on mine was over $300 and works very well, but I'm assuming you won't want to spend that much.

I also would suggest either a four point handlebar mount or a fork mount for better stability.

There are also two schools of though regarding windshield height. Look over it or through it? I like to look over mine. Some folks like to look through. Make that decision first, then select. Also consider that a tight fit around the headlight helps too.

I'm sure Easy Rider has some thoughts on this issue.... so ER, what do you think?

I look through mine.....just barely.

I've had a Memphis Shades, Santa Cruz on my last 3 bikes but it's not for everybody as it is a BIG shield and is not "quick release".

Ok, so as in everything in life cheaper is not better. Thank you everyone!

I just saw this post, and I have the SpitFire windshield on my Geezer. I like it a lot. It's easy to install and easy to remove. I didn't even have to look hard at the instructions ( Instructions? I don't need no stinking instructions! ) :biggrin:
