It does, but most seem to like them.

Good looking bike Papa. Side covers, seat and dart screen all look good.

Thank you, Sir Ferret!
I was hoping to do a "ride review" today on its performance, but unfortunately the freeway was too much of a mess last night to even consider.
I did get a couple of 50 and 60mph runs on some side streets, however, so I'm going to comment based on those speeds:
Surprisingly, this little fairing does help. Some. Your head/helmet is still in the wind. But it seems to, I don't know..."calm" the air around your torso. It's not like sitting behind, say a full Vetter fairing by any means, but you feel almost no buffeting below your helmet. There's just enough air to assist in holding you up a bit, off your wrists, but let's call it a very gentle breeze...I can see how this could actually help with the fatigue of fighting the air on a longer ride. I would probably prefer some REAL coverage if I was touring long distance, but there really is a discernible effect provided by this little flyscreen. For my mostly canyon and country road riding these days, this really does fit the bill - happy customer here!
