I plan to extend the front fairing over top and around the front wheel, not have it actually attached to the forks.....much like you see in the aero recumbent on the previous page.

The problem seems to be that turbulence is causing instability in the steering when a fairing is attached to the forks. Air hits this rotating object and simply wants to move it.
