A motor cycle including a frame and a fairing mounted on the frame, the fairing comprising a molded shell formed to provide a bridge portion having two depending side portions which define with the bridge portion a cavity of generally inverted U-shape in cross-section, a hollow front portion extending upwardly and forwardly from the side portions and forwardly from the bridge portion, and a rear portion extending rearwardly from the brige portion. The side portions are formed with rearwardly directed faces carrying leg protectors each having an outer lip to restrain movement of a rider's legs outwardly from behind the protector. The cavity in the fairing shell is filled with foam plastics material. The fairing protects a fuel tank against impact, either having the tank housed in it or being formed with side panels which at least partially cover the sides of the tank.
