2013 R1 Rear Hugger?

Skynet-T800 · 17 Sep 2013 at 22:25

Hi,

Just got back from Germany on my R1, a bit wet mind and due to the lack of hugger on the ass end, the bike is a right mess :eek:

Going to take along time to clean.

I want I really want a big hugger over that fat tyre, trouble is I can't seem to find any decent ones that don't look daft!

the original one is as much use as a chocolate fireguard :confused:

Huggers don't really fix this problem IME. They help protect the shock from the worst of it, but they don't cover enough of the tyre to stop the tail getting splattered.

Anyway, Skidmarx make one, or King Carbon if you fancy a bit of bling.

Well I continued to search and found this beauty.

You get the idea of how cool that hugger looks!

From a Japanese company - Clever Wolf Racing
Quality products and cost me £250 hoping I don't get stung for customs tax also :/
