Stylish Hugger

Finaly managed to obtain a hugger for my SP1 that dosen't look like a piece of plastic guttering or a pig trough. SP2's have a much better range to chose from IMO and i had been trying to get a Hotboddies SP1 hugger from the States with no joy, so when this carbon one came up on Ebay i had it. Took delivery today and it really is good quality carbon from Tyga :thumbup: I allready have the two piece chain guard set so didnt need the integral chain guard styles.

Looks great Steve,

Very tight clearance though :shock:

Perhaps you could put some nylon washers or something under it to give more clearance :?:

I have seen photos before where the tyre's grow at speed (centrifugal force) and eat through close fitting mudguards :ugeek:

Very nice :thumbup: , I was looking at getting one of those, but then found a SP2 swingarm. Will have to get their SP2 version though :D

the tyres quite new so il check for wear soon but there is in fact about 7-8 mm clear.

Be aware, with the SP2 swingarm a 190/55 tyre seems to catch the hugger, whilst my SP1 has no such issue

I have the Tyga one on my SP2 and a 55 tyre and it clears fine with no washers or raising. Top quality items from Tyga! I still have the carbon tail section and yoke on the wish list! ;)
