That could be dangerous. :skull:

First, you need to take the shield OFF temporarily to see if something else is causing it.....like a bad front tire or wheel bearings or loose head bearings.

If it does NOT do it with the shield off, then it is likely that you don't have enough "rake" angle in the mount; that is, you have it mounted too straight up. The top needs to be angled toward the back......at least a little bit.

Then again, it could just be loose mounts. Have you checked them lately ??

Mounts are fine, but because there are only two of them (nothing holding the shield from the bottom) then it'll never be super stable me thinks.

Re: Speed vs. Life of GZ250
 

I mounted my SPITFIRE with the bottom edge resting tightly against the speedometer about half way up.Made the shield much sturdier.Instructions say to mount with bottom of shield resting on top of headlight,but I found that to be way to low.Recently switched to a NATIONAL CYCLE Street Shield.It has four mounting points and over all a
much better product for not much more money.

:) :yes:

Yeah, I'm one of those people who HATE windscreens. NEVER had any success adjusting them :cry: My problem is, that living in the mountains, It can be really cool at times, so I need to wear my heavy leather jacket. When I get down to sea level I often find that the breeze makes me cool enough while I'm moving, but as soon as I stop (like at traffic lights) I'm so hot I'm soaked in sweat underneath.

That may very well be true......but you might be able to make some improvement.
Your avatar pic is kind of small; any chance you could post a bigger one ??
Having a little more angle can help....as can moving the mount points on your bars farther apart.
