Finally put my Cristmas gift on.

#1 Unread post by m1a1dvr »

So after some work to get the fairings off I put the carbon fiber rear hugger on that the girlfriend got me. It is a great piece. I could not have been happier. Here are some pics of the event.

This is how I work on the front end. I had to get the battery off to charge it. And the one scre that has the rubber bushings would not stay put. It would just turn with the screw. So I decided to pick the bike up to get a better look at it.

And the carbon hugger is newly mounted.

Mint,

I like the hugger. Nice job.

Was it easy to install? Where did you get it?

I'm thinking of putting a hugger on my new 2006 Honda 599 to keep dirt off the suspension spring. I like the look of a hugger too.

Lets see. The girlfriend got it off of ebay. I am not sure the store on there. But if you look there are a ton.

As for the fairings it looks like poop with them off. It just takes away from the whole bike. :laughing:

I have used that set up before. It works great from a bike lift to we have an attackment that works for a cherry picker.
