    HRC Carbon Hugger - £100

    There a few rub marks however these cannot be seen when fitted.
    One is on a ‘protrusion’ that sits inside the swingarm, the other is situated under the rear shock reservoir.

    Note this is off my 2015 non-ABS bike.

    Please check that it will fit yours should you wish to buy it.

    Fair enough point for aesthetics, Wozza.

    But for originality, many of us choose to leave them on. In 2047 they'll make the bike worth an extra two hundred quid!

    Yeah, me too, but a bit closer to 8 am. Will have to have my wits about me though, after just reading @keithg1748 post about leaking oil from a BRAND NEW Blade. I think I'd rather have an ABS issue!

    Got the new blade today, compared it to my own with the same hugger on it, and it won't fit a new blade.
