Yes, someone designed a full fairing on the front of a motorcycle that had the shape returning in before it ended, this showed a fairly (?) dramatic drag reduction to the motorcycle....I just keep waiting to see it utilized by someone, but have yet to find where someone has made use of the idea.

It was a full sized motorcycle, with a Goodest fairing design, I do recall the rearview mirror.
