I think this one is uglier. Someone in south Florida has been trying for years on CL to sell a new one, he's asking $1600! :barf:
This design is reminiscent of the 1950's 'dustbin' fairings that were popular especially on the two-stroke Eastern European roadracers of the 1950's, like DKW, before they were outlawed by the FIM, ostensibly because they made the handling 'dangerous,' because of susceptibility to sidewinds. The 'dustbin' fairing of that time actually covered up the entire front wheel and the front of the motorcycle. It was aerodynamically much 'cleaner' than an exposed bike, and with the development of tuned two-stroke exhausts first pioneered by the Eastern Europeans, their bikes were 'giant-killers,' regularly capable of beating bikes three times their displacement. The British were running undersquare four-stroke singles like the Matchless G50 and the Norton Manx. Moto Guzzi in a bid to outpower the tiny Communist-bloc two-stroke roadracers, developed their V-8, an audacious attempt that was short-lived, and never really lived-up to its promise.
One of the Eastern European roadracers defected to the West, with his mechanic, he took with him the secrets to the reverse-cone tuned two-stroke exhaust, and he landed at Suzzuki, who immediately put their new-found knowledge to work, and developed the technology with great success. The other Japanese manufacturers soon developed their own adaptations, except for Honda, who stayed with the four-stroke design, and who came-out with things like 50 cc twins, and 250 and 350 fours, and even six-cyliner powerplants (Honda RC 166, 250 cc six-cyl, below) turning incredible rpm's. If the Hondas had a more-forward engine placement, loading the front wheel more, they would have steered and turned much-better, and would have been much-easier for Honda's star, Mike Hailwood to ride. He wanted to have a noted British framemaker build a 'proper' frame for the Honda engine, but Mr. Honda wouldn't allow it, because it wasn't his engineering team's design.
