    As per title really?

    I'd like a larger rather than smaller one! (Que the jokes!) :D

    I did look for one but ended up with the small R&G one for now, non ABS Blades come with a small hugger - not sure why the ABS doesn't? if you find a decent carbon one please post the details and pictures as i would like to change mine... cheers

    Zero limits do a very similar one, leadtime says 40 days! Special order... doesn't mention ABS version though.

    I had several bits from them for my RR6,all good quality and priced well. I am only about 8 miles away from their shop in Bourne, if the weather picks up and they get the hugger in stock I'd be happy to go over and offer it up to my bike?

    Cheers Mr H, that sounds like a plan!

    I assume you have a MY12 Blade now?

    I still think the RR6 had the best back end of all the Blades! :)

    Yeah, I'm now the proud ownew of a 2012 HRC, I agree about the rear end on the RR6 though... no worries about Zero Limits, let me know what they say.

    Yes, mate, he said he'd have a look and get back to me.

    He never did, so he got struck off my list as a reliable supplier.

    Well Zero Limits have no stock of anything much, tiz all 40 days lead-time! :rolleyes:

    Suprised if they sell any carbon with a business model like that......................muppets!

    Harris website like some others has poxy generic pictures with non on the actual bike, so how the feck are you supposed to make an decission based on that?
    Another bunch of muppets who'll lose countless sales because customers will not take a risk spending over £100 on something they aint dot a clue what will look like fitted when they get it! :mad:


    Can't believe I can't find any fecker who sells decent gear and has got the half a brain required to realise that the customer wants to see the product they are sellin' installed on the specific bike with a decent sized picture. FFS!

    Gunna be buying the genuine Honda one at this rate at over £200

    You need to be 100% certain it will fit the 2012 bike with the longer twin tube shock - nothing for a 2008 - 2011 bike will fit your one.

    Annoying I know - I have a Honda 2012 one in Pearl white and while I'd like a carbon one zero point and wont be as well made as the Honda one.
