I do like the under body fairing but don't know how to make one that would survive a New England Winter. I have dragged the frame over a many a snow bank. Flexible airdam and side skirts are a must.


Try an alunimun reinforced belly pan a'la someone on this site whose name I don't currently recall. Search "belly pan build" and you might find it.
