Fairings for Kawasaki are a separate layer of armor that can be mounted and removed from the front of your motorcycle. Aside from further strengthening your motorcycle’s chassis, this equipment serves as a barrier protecting the rider against high-speed winds. Built from durable plastics that are not as heavy yet almost as strong as metal, Kawasaki fairings can withstand light impacts from flying debris or running into larger vehicles. Though they will retain their shape, the Kawasaki motorcycle fairings will crack or become scratched if struck by a violent impact. The rounded surface of the Kawasaki fairings allows the wind to flow around the surface seamlessly, reducing or eliminating the pull of air drag on your motorcycle. Because wind resistance has little to no effect on your motorcycle while riding, its overall maneuverability and performance improve. The windshield fitted on top of the fairings will help protect your head from incoming flying debris, plus your face will not stay exposed to wind or rain. Aside from your face being more comfortable while you ride, you will also feel less tired if you are on a long trip.
Design of Kawasaki Motorcycle Fairings
Viking Bags’ fairings for Kawasaki come in three different variants: the Bronco, Strider Sports, and Derby. The Bronco is the simple, standard version with a curved body and the smoothest surface, with the front having the largest distribution of ABS plastic and fiberglass to form the bulky armor. The back is shaped to fit against the surface of your motorcycle’s frame. Both the front and back are connected by the sizable circular hole in the center. The Strider Sports shares many characteristics with the Bronco, except that it has a more rounded body with slightly higher and wider dimensions. There are slight indents towards the front on opposite sides of the hole and grooves on top that give these fairings an edgier look. The Derby shares the basic characteristics of the Bronco and has a more circular shape like the Strider Sports but is considerably wider due to the large fins extending outwards along the sides.
All versions of the Kawasaki motorcycle fairings are fitted in place using the steel motorcycle clamps along the back, the universal hardware kit, and the instructions in the installation guide. They also are painted over with a glossy finish that gives them a pure black color scheme, but it is possible to alter the appearance by painting over the surface.
