What! Are you so sweet you're made of sugar and will dissolve if you get
wet!!!? Smile

What you should be looking for is called 'wet weather gear' (one piece
or leggings/raincoat) and goes over your clothes to keep you dry(ish)

A fairing will not keep you dry in the rain!

Very impractical if the wind is blowing.

Agreed.
I have a busa and you don't get much more faring than that.
It rains I get wet.
to stay dry your olny option is rain gear.
if you look in sporting goods stores you can find gloves for skiing that
have a squeege(sp)/wiper built right onto them. or you can silicon/rubber
cement a piece of old wiper blade to your gloves.
(it works like a damn)
