I can't P&G PERIOD on my Burgman. Centrifugal clutch and all.

I do EOC, and my clutch drops right at 15mph, whereat I can usually coast on flat ground for perhaps another 50'. On the way home, however, I go down a hill in a 25 zone, so I cut the engine, and coast perhaps .2 miles down hill.

A full-body fairing is a big undertaking for any bike. It was being talked about on the Burgman forums some time ago, but I don't believe anything ever came of it.

The benefits of such a fairing would be enormous, though.
