What is the best hugger I have a 2008 SV650 and the main dealer told me that Suzuki do not offer a hugger for is bike. Red Fox or Pyramid has been recommended to me what in your opinion is the best.

Go and tell the dealer that there is a hugger available. It may not be listed as fitting the K8 but an earlier one will do the job.
I have one on my K8 naked....

I have OEM as well but on a K7, i think it looks better than the others but it is pricey.

Yep, I had one fitted on my K8 when buying it. Bloody expensive mind.

Pyramid Plastics are the way to go. Just make sure that when it is fitted there is enough room left between the tyre and the hugger so that any stones that the tyre picks up do not scrape on the indside of the hugger. Its not a nice sound! :)

Thanks for the info guys managed to persuade the dealer that there is one available going to cost £165 fitting will be free as I am buying the bike off them. Also fitted free of charge will be a screen, Scott Oiler, Datatag, crash bungs and and Givi top box all this for a 08 plate SV650 with 3k miles which I picked up from the dealer for £3k. Not a bad deal me thinks.
