Abstract
A motorcycle fairing with improved safety and operational features including a long-throw, strengthened adjustable windscreen, an electrical wiper motor and wiper assembly attached directly to the adjustable windscreen and cornering lights operated by both the turn signals and independent switch means. The adjustable windscreen has a pair of female members fixed to the windscreen and a pair of male track members fixed to the fairing. In assembly, the female members are connected to the male track members and slide along the track members to a desired position. Release means associated with the male and female members serve to lock the windscreen in a selected position. The windshield wiper motor and/or wiper arm and blade are attached to the adjustable windscreen and move up and down with the windscreen. Cornering lights mounted on fairing side faces are operated by both the motorcycle's turn signals and an independent switch mounted on the fairing.
