I know a nitwit that spent $3000. for a similar raincoat. I pass the guy each time I go by the mirror.

The design is rather primitive in terms of aero drag and rider comfort. The bubble will either fog up or cook the rider without proper ventilation. See WISIL website at recumbents.com for some good information on streamlining projects. A great fairing could be built for well under $1000 USD.
