Most Road Star riders will tell you their bike is exactly that: a star. In Europe, it’s known as the Wild Star, a designation that clearly describes its combination of cruiser styling and road eating power. When you climb aboard and settle in, you feel ready for the road. Add a Vector Batwing Fairing and yourself the best possible cruising experience. Channeling all that wind over your head will eliminate all the unwanted upper body workout, particularly at higher speeds.
In addition to helping you relax in the saddle, the Vector’s hand-laid fiberglass construction and strong gelcoat finish will help put your mind at ease. You can even save on fuel! Like every Vector Batwing Fairing, the Road Star model is carefully designed to be easy to install. You’ll be back on the road and riding with increased comfort in no time.
Yamaha created the Star brand to demonstrate their focus on cruisers. Our Vector brand demonstrates our focused commitment to quality: hand-laid fiberglass construction, tough gelcoat finish, and beautiful, functional design. Add a Vector to your Road Star and get out there!
(1) Base Price - Smooth Front Fairing
(2) Base Price + $30.00 - Simulated Vent Fairing - Accepts digital media receiver and not a traditional single DIN head unit
NOTE: The Vector Batwing Fairing Does Not have a functioning vent. The words “simulated vent” and “vented-look” refer to the cosmetic design of this fairing, which makes it appear to have a vent. We do not offer a truly vented fairing.
Shipping time was quick. Instalation instructions where easy to understand. Instalation was simple and the fairing really makes my bike look great.
The processing and shipping was pretty fast. I already put it on my 1999 Yamaha road star 1600. It went on with no issues, no needing to mod the batwing to fit. The instructions it came with were straight forward, although not necessarily needed. While riding with the fairing on I haven’t noticed any excessive rattling coming from it. After 5 days of moderate riding none of the screws holding the inner and outer pieces have backed out. I would definitely recommend this product to friends
The overall shape and feel of the fairing is great. The only issues I have are the holes for the provided metal brackets are not spot on so I had to waller them out to get their hardware to fit without cracking the fiberglass. The places where the windshield sandwiches between do not line up very well and really looks bad because it's very visible. Still great for the price and the quick shipping can't be beat!
Staff was very helpful, arrived quick, and easy to install. Totally changed the look on my 1700 Roadstar. I had the option of installing my own stereo system and the finish was great. Would definitely recommend for a do it yourselfer! Blows the competitors away-and the wind as well.
