We have 18 wheelers everywhere! The California coast riders with Craig Vetter in Monterey get strong winds off the ocean. I get the thunderstorm winds especially crossing the river here. My bicycle fairings have done well because I attach to the head tube rather than the handlebars as do most fairings available. Since a motorcycle has 4 to 4.5 inches of ground clearance, floating plastic skirts could be made. The Chaparral 2J used them to get a partial vacuum under the car for down force. A gas fan would use fuel too.
