I've been working on fairings for a pedal bike that has a hoop in the cowl fairing and a bulkhead at the rider's back. The side panels hinge up and out. The sheet magnets and air pressure are used instead of a latch. The cowl is Coroplast and the bulkhead is honeycomb aluminum. The tail box and sides are reinforced skins of 1" hex wire mesh bonded between sheets of 5 mil tarp plastic. For a motorcycle use aluminum ribs and ABS skin. PVC might crack and wood might splinter in a crash. Consider an inertial reel lap belt.
