Just thought i would run a suggestion past the wealth of knowledge available- Taking into consideration the high cost of recumbent bike/trike fairings has anyone got any thoughts on using a motorbike windscreen as a recumbent fairing. I appreciate that the mounting brackets would have to be made seperatly but is there any mileage in this train of thought
few figures to use motorbike windshield approx cost £40 on ebay may be cheaper from scrap yard classifieds etc
recumbent fairing without mounting kit approx $200
main questions to consider is a Mbike fairing large enough, is it too heavy and could the mounting bracket be made from non specialist equipment ie no welding
another thought would be vac form my own fairing cost of PETG sheet approx £15 cost of vac forming £?? at present
any advice would be appreciated
PS i know there is a fairing on ebay at present am keeping an eye on it to see what it goes for
