Title: LSR fenders
Post by: shayan on March 26, 2019, 03:04:16 PM

Have any of you tried one of these Land Speed Record front fenders?

Seems like a worthy try to get some aero gains without "uglifying" the bike too much?

Yeah a fairing would be nice on the Empulse it has one of the noisiest rides I've ever encountered in a motorcycle.  My Kawasaki ZR7 which is a naked bike also has better wind protection.  Even with the windscreen it's still noisey ride.  It like the Empulse channels the air straight under your helmet or something.  Maybe we could get something like the Icon Zero bikes.

That would be great. But not sure if they just sell the fairings? It can potentially be retrofitted into an Empulse.
On a side note, this zero has a chain drive!

Yep it sure it does I think it might be an FXS with the chain kit because it looks like it has the modular battery packs.
