Benefits of Memphis Shades Road Warrior Fairings


One of the best aspects of motorcycle touring is embracing the elements and environments encountered on the open road. That said, enduring adverse weather and punishing winds for hours at highway speeds quickly loses its charm without adequate provisions for protection.

 

Let’s look at some of the core benefits provided by Memphis Shades Road Warrior Fairings:

 

Wind and Weather Protection

 

A set of full fairings converts an otherwise naked bike into a veritable cocoon on wheels. The exterior ABS plastic shell wards off cold winds, light rain, and road debris that would otherwise bombard unprotected riders. This goes a long way towards reducing physical strain and mental fatigue over long days.

 

By smoothly redirecting airflow around instead of into riders, Memphis Shades touring fairings substantially reduce wind blasts and turbulence. The result is vastly improved comfort mile after mile, allowing touring riders to simply relax and enjoy the ride. Neck strain from wrestling with side winds also becomes a thing of the past.

Stay Fresh and Alert Longer

 

It’s nearly impossible to arrive refreshed after a full day battling winds and weather without protective fairings. The relentless pummeling saps energy and concentration faster than you expect.

 

Fairings transform the ride experience by providing a calm, protective bubble for riders to settle into. Hours zoom by with less perceived effort, letting touring riders stay energized and attentive longer. Pulling into the next stopover less fatigued means more enthusiasm for enjoying the locale once boots hit the ground!

 

Improved Fuel Efficiency

 

An additional boost provided by motorcycle fairings is improved fuel efficiency, especially at sustained highway speeds. Reducing drag and airflow friction lets your engine expend less effort pushing through the wind. The end result is decent mileage savings over the course of a long motorcycle tour.
