    Hi guys

    I'm looking for a standard rear hugger for my 2010 Blade.

    Any help would be appreciated

    Mate, ring Pidcocks in Long eaton.

    I got one from them a couple of months ago and it cost me........£6 :)

    I think they're set up on the system Wrongly, they must be at that price!

    although it could've been changed by now perhaps due to a lack of regular orders maybe it's just alwaŷs. Gonna be a loss leader item for them and it'll go unnoticed.......until they read this :)

    Thanks

    I'm not having much joy on the evil bay. I'll give them a try.

    It must be an error though. U couldn't get a valve cap for that price from Honda ;)

    I like the minimal look from the stock one mate. I had a powerbronze 1 ,but I've just taken it off as I don't think it suits the bike.

    Na I didn't really like the powerbronze when I got it, but it was the only 1 at the time that would fit the ABS model.

    I've found out now though that the standard 1 fits, Thanks to Bats.

    I like the carbon fibre 1's but for what they are they're over priced.

    Well I had a White HRC one with the bike, looked a bit odd as the wheels & swingarm were black etc

    Quite fancy a black version but best I've found them for is about £100 delivered which isn't bad but c'mon, it's a bit of fooking abs plastic :)

    Stock ones are ok if you can get one cheap IMO , I wouldn't pay £30-40 for one as you may as well buy an upgrade, but for £6 ish? Hell yes

    Dya want me to ring them on Monday? I could just ask for a repeat order as I know it's on the system so we could Try it on and hope it just gets repeated at the same price :)

    The way I see it gents is it's a £1 bit of moulded plastic, if we can get it for £6 then that's about right in my book.

    £30 upwards? Never :)

    Exactly.

    I'd rather spend the extra money on making the bike go better.

    Mate you should see the forum I'm on for my car . Shockingly shite !! Its been going since 2006 has thousands of members but gets 10 posts a week ?

    Everybody is grumpy , If you ask a question they give you a row for not searching for the answer first as its already been covered .

    My intro post when i joined 6 od weeks ago has still only had 2 welcome to the forum posts . On here new members get 3 pages in the first hour !! lol

    This is the best forum iv experienced by far

    My mate was the same when he went onto an Audi forum. The guys on it were absolute twats. So he ended up getting torn into them, n told them that no wonder Audi drivers are know as w***ers.

    I've never seen any of that stuff on here that's why I joined. Gotta love it :)
