    Abstract: A motorcycle fairing designed to effectively reduce the influence of lateral wind forces upon its side portions in order to achieve a markedly improved straight-running stability of the motorcycle. The fairing comprises an upper windshield section arranged at the forward portion of the cycle body for protection of the operator from wind and rain, and a lower windshield section connected to the upper windshield section and extending longitudinally from the front to rear end of the cycle body so as to cover the front and side portions thereof, the lower windshield section having upper and lower wind-guiding surfaces respectively formed in a streamlined horizontal section and connected integrally with each other to define a pair of inwardly concave longitudinal grooves or valleys, the upper side surfaces respectively being of such a vertical size or length as to decrease gradually in the rearward direction.
