Difference between revisions of "Fairing"

A '''fairing''' is a structure whose primary function is to produce a smooth outline and reduce [[Drag (physics)|drag]]. These structures are generally light-weight shapes and covers for gaps and spaces between parts of a vehicle.  They are commonly used on sportbikes to give them smooth lines and make them more physically appealing.  There's no doubt they help to reduce drag, however, and often make a bike more rideable (keep less wind of the rider) at higher speeds.
