I'm 5'9" and I've got a Windcheetah but I would really like one with the
fairing.

Tell you what, you get the one with the fairing, and I'll give your
existing one a good and loving home for free! ;-)

I can't do that, I'm too attached to mine.

Buy the one with the fairing, swap the fairing onto the one you are
attached to, and then give the leftover newly fairingless one to Velvet?

There is only one problem. If I could afford the fairings I would have had
them by now.
The only reason I could afford the windcheetah in the first place was
because I was hit by a car a few years back and the compensation I got could
only pay for the club sport without the fairings. It's still a good ride
though.
