Craig, rumor has it you are working on a new fairing design. Is this true?
 
Well there was the Alcan, but that petered out for various reasons (though the prototypes work quite well). Really, anything he's working on is on his website.
 
A few years ago, my wife and I thought we would ride up the Alcan to Alaska together. I developed the Alcan fairing for it. In every way, it was superior to the Windjammer... except it does not look like anything you are used to seeing. I showed the development of it on my web page but nobody seemed interested. I made 12.
Then I got back to real streamlining . This "Last Vetter Fairing" is the best fairing I have ever designed. It allows you to go 70 mph, into a 30 mph headwind, sit up and comfortable, carry a useful load and get over 100 mpg. If fuel ever becomes precious, you will want this fairing. I make the kits available but very few people can embrace such a radical concept because it does not look like anything you are used to seeing.

Its OK. Living better on less energy is the common thread of my life as a designer / motorcyclist. This is my noble cause. It is the right thing to be doing. Check out the pic.
