The shape is looking great. A couple minor tweaks to consider.
1) Widen the coroplast top piece at the shoulder by adjusting the overlap so the air does not hit the shoulders and passes cleanly on to the tail section.
2) Extend the upper half of the rear section forward to cover the gap between your back and rear access hatch. Add pieces of protective material at the shoulders and hips then look into using an inertial reel lap belt.
3) Cover the bottom of the nose piece ahead of the front tire.
4) Add ducting to the radiator then enclose the bottom of the bike.
5) Use some clear plexiglass to deflect air over the helmet and allow you to see the gauges.
I am incorporating some of these ideas in my bicycle fairing systems.
