It's too bad all the commercially available fairings are expensive as heck
And let's face it, not too many people have the skill set to make their own.
So what kind of "common" materials can be used instead of a custom one off fiberglass shell?
I was walking around lowes and saw a huge 39" wide by 30" tall dog igloo for $125. Looked like polyethelene or maybe abs plastic , if abs that stuff is very very easy to glue together.
here is a slightly smaller one at amazon just search for dog igloo. (drat forum wont' let me post links because I am a new member!)
How about two wheel barrel shells riveted together to make a kind of front fairing, however they are about $80 each.
I was at restaurant depot and they had a 40 liter aluminum wok for around $90.
At home depot they had some huge planters that were about 24" diameter.
what other off the shelf mass produced and thus "cheap" items could work well as fairings for those that want to save money and fuel.
Unless it makes economical sense why bother is for better or worse how many think!
