Deflector for motorcycle

A pair of deflectors for mounting on each side of a motorcycle having a front fork, each pair comprising:

• (a) a first panel comprised of a substantially planar upper section and bottom section, said upper section having an outwardly disposed arcuate marginal edge;
• said bottom section obtusely angled relative to the plane of said upper section and having a trailing edge extending rearwardly of said upper section, for extending downwardly and rearwardly from the fork of the motorcycle;
• (b) means for engaging said first panel with the fork;
• and
• (c) a substantially planar second panel for disposition mainly downwardly and rearwardly relative to said bottom section of said first panel, and having a forwardly inclined profile at its upper surface for overlapping disposition with said bottom section of said first panel and having a leading edge for positioning forward of said trailing edge of said bottom section of said first panel, and means for engaging said second panel with the motorcycle for substantially parallel disposition relative to the plane of said bottom section of said first panel.

A pair of deflectors symmetrically mounted about a longitudinal center line of a motorcycle having a front fork having a longitudinal axis, and a windshield positioned mainly upwardly of the front fork and substantially parallel thereto, each pair comprising:

• (a) a first panel disposed on each side of the longitudinal center axis and depending downwardly from the windshield, said first panel comprised of an upper section and a bottom section having a trailing edge disposed substantially transverse to the longitudinal axis of the front fork, said bottom section obliquely angled relative to the plane of said upper section for extending diagonally downwardly and rearwardly with reference to the front fork of the motorcycle;
• and
• (b) a second panel disposed substantially transverse to the longitudinal axis of the front fork and mainly downwardly and rearwardly relative to said bottom section of said first panel, and said second panel having a forwardly inclined profile at its upper surface for overlapping disposition with said bottom section of said first panel and having a leading edge positioned forward of said trailing edge of said bottom section of said first panel thereby forming an air passageway for directing air downwardly and away from the rider;
• and
• (c) means for fixedly mounting said second panel to the motorcycle for substantially parallel disposition relative to the plane of said bottom section of said first panel.
