I'm trying to understand the purpose of the "fairings" on these bikes.

I like your whole "DIY" mentality and your sense of "I don't care what you think." Those are admirable qualities.

But I just can't figure out the purpose behind the fairings. (The motorcycle one looks the best out of them all, btw.)

Let's talk about the Macintosh one.....you said you were going to haul gravel in it. But you weren't going to put gravel in the Mac case (right?). So what exactly is (was) the Mac case there for? It doesn't look like you could store anything in there, and it seems to obstruct your view of the road. So I'm just really trying to figure out why you built this huge and super-strong contraption on the front of your bike so that you could mount a box at an angle that doesn't allow you to store anything in it and blocks your vision? Was it just for aerodynamics? Looks?

Also, (criticism here) you posted the picture of the yellow bike after you re-painted the fiberglass, and it doesn't look very smooth at all. I'm guessing that you need to spend a little more time smoothing/sanding your fiberglass. You could have these things looking professional with just a little extra time spent on smoothing out the fiberglass.

Anyway, I'm really curious about the "fairings" and what their intended purpose is.
