Title: S2R Rear Hugger pic Post by: Pasta Bobber on November 26, 2009, 06:04:42 AM Does anybody have a picture of an S2R or S4R with a rear hugger on it? I searched around a little and had no luck. lots of just the hugger, but I need to see it on a bike. Trying to figure out if the look would be rite for me. Thanks in advance for any help

Title: Re: S2R Rear Hugger pic Post by: stopintime on November 26, 2009, 11:14:39 AM You can see my Ducati hugger on the BOMB pictures (at least parts of it)
The ones posted above are all the kind that also covers the lower parts of the swing arm - good for shock protection. Another possible plus (YMMV) is the profile which is more, ehh... profiled. IMO their fit isn't as flush to the swingarm compared to the Ducati part (or similar aftermarket version).

Will a hugger do anything to minimize spray back w/ the tail chop?

What belt guard do you have on there? Looks good... Title: Re: S2R Rear Hugger pic Post by: Pasta Bobber on November 26, 2009, 07:28:46 PM Thanks guys, that helps a lot. The hugger would be going on the bobber. I'm trying to decide if I should go with a hugger, or stop being lazy and make a fender for it. I'll probably make a stubby fender for it, we'll see.

IMO, two things would work on the PB... a hugger/fender like celli's (could be stubbier, but the lines work, I think) or (esp if you're not running a front) leave it bare Title: Re: S2R Rear Hugger pic Post by: ProTeal55 on November 27, 2009, 09:39:17 AM I would make a stubby one that would start from the base of the swingarm and not go past the seat (real stubby)...

I'm assuming you're talking about the cool little floating piece on the back of the tire of the MTS 1200 Then I could go without a rear fender. Between that and the seat it should keep the dirt off my back........ish. definately a cool spot for the light too [clap] [thumbsup]
