on the K3 onwards i think the official suzuki hugger is the best, anyone know where to get one at a sensible price.

Also Colggsy has an ART hugger which looks the dogs danglys see the link Cloggsy's bike

I have to agree with Speeeedy, the Suzuki 1 is hard to beat especially for fit and finish.
Although I do rate Ermax but didn't want to take a chance on Colour match.

Ermax and the OEM ones are very nice for the pointies. Colour match seems good on the Ermax.
There are some nice 3rd party ones for the curvies, but I can't think of any names.

All the ART threads have gone

Basically (to cut a very long story short ) I lent ART my bike for a week in May '04 to make a pattern for the Carbon Fibre & alloy hugger...

Eventually, after many many phone calls to Mr Chris White (MD) & 6 months of waiting I eventually took delivery of the said hugger (I had to go & collect it myself from their factory on my way back from the NEC biks show) & from then on I vowed NEVER to buy anything from ART for my bike... Don't get me wrong, the hugger is lovely (although I had to elongate some of the holes to fit it to my machine etc etc, but ART are a joke - they have the customer service skills of a sweaty flip-flop IMHO



























Sorry the pics are a bit dark, it was quite late when I finished taking 'em...


Look at the link in my sig for more pics

P.S. No comments about my chicken strips
