Craig Vetter (born July 28, 1942, in Selma, Alabama)〔 is an American entrepreneur and motorcycle designer. His work was acknowledged when in 1999 he was inducted into the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame. His Vetter Fairing Company created aftermarket motorcycle fairings in the 1970s before manufacturers themselves included fairings on their products. The product has been cited as once being so ubiquitous that the term "Windjammer" was interchangeable with "fairing". The company at one time was the second largest motorcycle industry manufacturer in the United States, behind only Harley-Davidson. He founded Equalizer Corp and his innovative human powered design won the Boston Marathon wheelchair class in 1982. In 1998, Vetter’s design for the British Triumph Hurricane was selected to be in the Guggenheim Museum's ''The Art of the Motorcycle'' exhibit which toured the world, and has since become a cult icon and much-valued collectors' item among owners' groups.〔("The Triumph Hurricane by the man who designed it" ), Craig Vetter's Official site.
