"It is not about going faster... it is about living better and consuming less fuel"
Craig Vetter
Alan props up the clay nose of the "Last Vetter Fairing"on his Ninja to see how it fits. 41 years ago I used this same clay to make the first Windjammer Fairing! Today, to help visualize, I also use a little Photoshop. Check out Chapter 52 to get current on streamlining the Ninja 250.
In 1970, one out of four gallons of the petroleum we burned in our vehicles was imported. Today, three out of four gallons is imported. This is making us poor and them rich. In 1970, my Windjammer Fairing helped 40 mpg motorcycles to be better transportation. Today, we need motorcycles to be better transportation while consuming less fuel. The Last Vetter Fairing is designed to do just this. Sure doesn't look like a Windjammer, does it?
