Does anybody know of a headlight/cafe racer fairing that would fit a RD 125 DX?

My son's going to drive his 125 DX a bit more in speed than I thought, he's gotten himself a summer job with a commute on a highway with 100 km/h speed limit. And without a fairing he's acting like a parachute in that speed! :biglaugha: So does anybody know of a type of fairing that will fit a DX? Not a full fairing, of course. Just a headlight fairing with a bit of a wind screen on it.

I was thinking about something like this, but I don't know if it will be any good:

It's from the US eBay and not that expensive either:

It says it's for a 7" headlight, and I measured the headlight on the DX to around 16 cm, which is 6,4 inches. Is that probably within the limits?

I use a puig screen on the xs and it kept a lot of wind off the chest and doesn't look too bad either.

mines similar to this but clear

Thanks, both of you! That Puig thingy was very cool! :) That may be an even better choice. I'll have to confer with the rider himself when he gets home from school. Also I must see if I can get that Puig in Norway, since shipping and especially custom fees more than doubles the price before we get it. Norwegian customs service is a bit of a blackmail system...

Edit: Norway's even more expensive! ;) And I see the shipping at Buster's accessories is hysterical! If I was living in Sweden (a three hour drive from here) it would be $15, same if I was living in Denmark (a three hour boat trip from here). To Norway it's £58! Stupid!

The taste of the young genration... As soon as I had the name Puig this one came up, and he liked it better:

But to his defense it looks like it will be even better at repelling the wind.

M&P and Busters are the same company :)

Puig is a German company so try there, it might be cheaper

cheapest i have found
