Perley - I think I like the fairing, too
. Instead of welding it on, though, I would paint it to match the body and attach it with 4 button-head allen bolts. Not much weight or stress there, so you could drill & tap some 1/4-20 or 1/4-28 holes directly in the frame horns and use stainless bolts.
Rickomatic - As a former welding instructor I shouldn't admit this, but I do most of my welding in jean-shorts and tank top!
(see pic) It's just too darn hot here to wear all the protective gear, especially when I usually weld for seconds at a time with minutes between welds.
