Now THAT'S a fairing!
« on: December 28, 2006, 09:09:51 PM »
I was surfing the Airheads.org website this evening, looking at members' photos, and came across this photo of a member's R65 with a Hannigan fairing.  Maybe it's because the guy and girl are short, but the fairing looks huge on the bike!  Is it just me, or does this fairing appear to be X-tra large?  :-?

Just as well it's on a LWB mono, hate to see what sort of handling the pre '85 dual shocks would do with it. Even with that, the poor 48 horses would really be struggling to push it against a wind with two up. Kind've looks out of proportion, and the headlight is certainly considerably higher than norm.
