The invention provides a fairing assembly (10) for a motorcycle (12) including an aerodynamic shield (11) and a mounting arrangement for mounting the shield (11) on a motorcycle (12). The shield (11) is operable between a stowed condition and an operative condition. In the operative condition, the shield (11) is positioned to reduce aerodynamic drag on a front wheel (13) of a motorcycle (12), such that, in use, the drag on the front wheel (13) is smaller when the shield (11) is in its operative condition than when the shield (11) is in its stowed position. The invention also extends to a motorcycle (12) having such an aerodynamic shield (11) mounted adjacent a front wheel (13) of the motorcycle (12). The invention further extends to a method of improving the aerodynamic characteristics of a motorcycle (12).
