I love this thing. The bike could quite possibly look better without a fairing. Where we are we get localized rain. This is so nice!You are getting beat-up by the wind without a faring. Try riding without one, then put it back on! The handling, the speed is always just cruising!Thanks so much national cycle (I was balking at the shipping). Also a shout-out to Decalboy for the awesome pegasus stallion for my sun chariot.Mahalo
