My latest modification to my KLR

I'm getting a cool new toy. Motorcycling legend Craig Vetter has figured out a way to make a motorcycle split the wind even better than before, as well as handling the problem of deer, moose, and random pedestrians jumping out in front of your motorcycle. Behold... the Sawblade fairing. Also good for us Californians who lane split -- those cars aren't gonna jump into our lane if they see that coming, bwahahahah!

Oh, be sure to check out the date at the bottom of that web page :-).

  1. Here in the Motherload , we seem to have an abundance of people that like to drive in both lanes of a two lane highway , and at excessieve speeds as well . My thought has been to add a bumper to my pickup designed like the old "cow catcher " of the steam train era . Solid iron bars with a v shape to push the oncomming wreck to one side or the other . Seems to be the only solution these people will understand . I'd sure hate to on any kind of bike with these folks around .

  2. Looks like you're read to go out and play chicken with logging trucks.
