Whats wrong with putting a fairing like that on a daily driven street bike?

The design im going for is going to look something like this. Im sure many of you have seen his design before. Its a Ninja 250 converted to electric.


However, im not sure how much more drag will be created by having a fairing designed for up-right seating. How much less drag would this fairing design have, if you guys had to make an educated guess?


I would say that 75% of my riding on my Ninja 250 is in a crouched/layed down position, and i dont really have a problem with it.
