Vetter's team put a lot of work into the new bodywork as seen on the electric bike in a very short amount of time and has shown once again he is very passionate about the streamlining concept. They did a completely new nose clay and mold to come all the way up to the new molded cowl.

It is time for some measurements. Maybe a University student somewhere could could put Alan's bike in the tunnel to give us some numbers. Cornell has a full sized wind tunnel for example and I'm sure many west coast schools would have one also. I would think it would be closer to .30cd.
