The VTX is a unique blend of cruiser lines with a sportbike heart. This bike offers plenty of power with rider ergos suitable for long range riding. Problem is that to really rack up the highway mileage you need some wind protection.
You've probably seen our Trimtab adjustable fairing that works great for a good balance of sporty lines and wind protection. But if you're looking for something with a bit more "traditional" edge, this Fleetliner model is just the ticket.
Corbin has taken the shape of our traditionally styled Fleetliner fairing and reflowed it to extend over the VTX headlight providing a more aggressive look. Naturally we've retained all the aerodynamic engineering so it provides excellent wind protection. Another example of form and function expertly combined in Corbin fashion. If you're looking to capitalize on the traditional cruiser aesthetic, this is the fairing for you!
You've seen fairings like this on cruiser models before, but Corbin has upgraded the design to provide better areodynamics. Notice how the shape of the fairing starts at the headlight and flows back to part the wind more gracefully. This transfers the highest pressure area rearward of the steering pin which gives much greater stability at speed (a kind of rudder effect). This shape also brings the slipstream "bubble" further back to get you out of the wind.
As the fairing is designed to slip through the wind, it creates less turbulence and buffeting which gives you a quieter and smoother ride than the standard plexi windshield. Naturally this stability and low pressure slipstream for the rider helps to relieve fatigue associated with long days on the highway. It also helps to lower wind noise which adds to the comfort value.
Constructed of our Fibertech material for a smooth clean finish and durability. Our fairing is then hand painted (single color only) to coordinate with your stock paint scheme. Please note there is a slight upcharge for Illusion paint match. Above we show the fairing with the addition of Honda graphics on the silver fairing and bags. These came directly from a Honda dealer and were not done by Corbin.
Subtle details like the center rib make it beautiful to look at. Topped off with a smoked windscreen and chrome trim for a beautiful piece that is ready to install right out of the box. If you are a taller rider and prefer a little more wind protection, we also offer a 10" clear windscreen in place of the smaller smoked one, just select the appropriate windscreen in the space provided.
Corbin's Fleetliner fairing is simple to install with complete directions and all required brackets included. To assure a perfect look on your VTX, brackets come painted to coordinate with bike and give a subtle appearance. Installation can be accomplished by an average weekend mechanic.
