Looking for a windshield... any suggestions?
When I bought my bike it came with a wind shield but it was broken and had to be removed. So now I'm in the market for a new one.
I have a couple of windshields I have found such as this one...

Anyone have any better suggestions... I was hoping to get one under $100 if at all possible.

That's the National Cycle Dakota and its a great shield.
If you'd like a slightly different look, the National Cycle Street Shield and Street Shield EX are also great choices. They use a four point mounting system and are very stable at speeds.

The Slipstreamer Spitfire is a popular shield for the Rebel and costs around $65. But it only has a two point mounting system and is a little bouncey.

This is what I ended up getting... not sure if I have it mounted correctly though, but the way I have it right now makes it less "bouncy".

My dad had one installed in July when I decided I wanted one. Not sure what it is tho..but I liked the chrome brackets that came with it.

Nice, much nicer then the split fire I ordered... I will have to get something like that when I get my Honda Shadow in a few years.

Looks like a Memphis Shades model, possibly a Tombstone.
