Thirded. Thanks Craig. I've got quite a few miles behind Vetter fairings. Hopefully many more to come.

Well deserved Craig.

I've lost count of how many miles I've covered behind his fairings.

Looking forward to building an Aero Bike and using one of this new fairings once he gets the design worked out.
