The Problem with most fairings is well documented by Craig Vetter in his dvd on how they got to 470mpg. The demonstation that convinced me that most fairings do nothing was the one about the naked KLR at the salt flats that only went 1/2 mph faster with a FIM racing fairing. Do you know of a fairing for a road bike that has proven aerodynamics on a modern road bike?
