Default Whats in a rear hugger fitting kit?

Hi All

I have just found a rear hugger that would fit my bike for an absolute steal. Only thing is it doesn't have a fitting kit with it.
What exactly is in the fitting kit? Is it essential or is just a selection of bolts that I could "borrow", from my work?
If it is needed how much would one of these go for?

Any advice greatly appreciated.

What bike are we talking about and which Hugger?

Most Huggers, but not all, use the existing bolts I believe.

For an SV three bolts (two chain guard and one rear brake hose clamp) and possibly some rubber grommets.

Which make is the hugger?

For a 99 SV650S. The hugger is apparently Suzuki but it's on e-bay so not 100% about that.

Comes with three bolts, you should be able to reuse your chain guard bolts but you may need a slightly longer bolt for the rear hose clamp.

If you PM me the link I will confirm if it is OEM, don't worry i am not interested in buying a hugger.

Just fitted my hugger (although it's a Red Fox on an 08 Bike - but the fittings are likely to be very similar).

It came with two bolts which replaced the existing chain guard ones... but I see no reason why I couldn't have used the original ones. The brake line guide bold was re-used in holding the hugger on.

Cheers for that DD but I just bought it anyway.
Keep fingers crossed it'll be ok.
Thank's for the help guys.
