Flexiglass in British Columbia, Canada.

Probably an updated Flexiglass design that changes the radiator positioning from flat to facing the front.

That's a Buell-factory-superbike fairing, one generation prior to the 1125RR fairing. In house, its nickname was the F14 fairing, and was first used in Canadian Superbike. It uses the same nose and bellypan as the 1125RR fairing, but different side panels and radiator ducts. Tooling still exists to make these, but there is really no reason to do it.

I called Trev at FlexiGlass a couple of months ago to ask about the old ram air panels. He said then that he had some new ones he was working on but wasn't sure when they would be offered to the public. Had something to do with a request from Erik. I can't remember all the details from the conversation.

But I do have an email from him that says I'm on the list to receive a set when they might be available later this summer. I hope they're not those squared off ones in the OP's pic. Not sure I like them better than the old style ram air panels.

With a little luck perhaps the new panels will be more like the fairing on the Barracuda - now that would be sweet - and it would hopefully wind up HD to have a few clones on the road ...
