Abstract: The said industrial design consists of the shape, configuration and ornamentation of a generally symmetrical front fairing for a motorcycle having a front wall, a rear wall, and an end portion extending between the front and rear walls; the front and rear walls each have a wing-like lower section and an upper section; the upper section extends upwards and away from the end portion of the fairing; the wing-like lower section has an upper edge which is generally straight and then merges into a smooth curve which extends downwardly away from the end portion of the fairing to a pointed end; the curved portion of the upper edge has an inwardly-bent surface which extends along the length thereof; each of the wing-like lower sections has a lower portion, an intermediate portion and an upper portion; each lower portion has a generally triangular configuration when seen from the side and below and an inwardly bent lower surface; each intermediate portion has an opening situated part-away along its length which extends the height of the intermediate portion; a flat surface area extends away from the opening in the intermediate portion to the curved portion of the upper edge of the wing-like lower section; a smooth, inwardly curved surface area extends away from the opening to the end portion of the fairing; a small flat oval area having small openings therein is situated in the intermediate portion of the wing-like lower section between the opening and the end portion of the fairing, the oval area being raised at one end thereof and recessed at the other end thereof; the upper portion of the wing-like lower section has a flat generally triangular surface and a ridge separating the intermediate and upper portions of the wing-like lower section extends from the end portion of the fairing to the upper edge of the wing-like lower section; a second ridge separates the upper portion of the wing-like lower section from the upper section of each of the side walls; the upper section of the front and rear walls bulges outwards part-way along its height and then bends inwards; the lower portion of the upper section has a generally triangular opening therein which increases in height toward the end portion of the fairing; the generally triangular opening has lateral surfaces extending inwards from the surface of the upper section; the end portion has a pair of spaced-apart upper and lower outwardly curved members extending between the front and rear walls; the upper and lower curved members together with the adjacent areas of the front and rear walls situated between the upper and lower curved members define a generally trapezoidal opening with rounded corners in the end portion of the fairing; opposite ends of the upper curved members merge smoothly into a pair of upwardly extending inwardly-bent portions which are situate along the upper edges of the upper section of the front and rear walls; the inwardly-bent portions have a pair of spaced-apart openings situated in a raised oval area located close to the outer end thereof; the lower surface of the end portion of the fairing is slightly concave and extends away from the lower edge of the lower curved member of the end portion of the fairing.Representations of the design are shown in the figures wherein:Fig. 1 is a front elevation view of the design for a front fairing for a motorcycle;Fig. 2 is a rear elevation view thereof;Fig. 3 is a top plan view thereof;Fig. 4 is a bottom plan view thereof;Fig. 5 is a right end elevation view thereof;Fig. 6 is a left end elevation view thereof;Fig. 7 is a perspective view from the left front of the design for a front fairing for a motorcycle; andFig. 8 is a perspective view from the right rear of the design for a front fairing for a motorcycle.Drawings of the design are included.
