Default which hugger should santa get me?

merry christmas everyone.

santa was good to me so i've got a nice wad of cash for some mods. so do I go for a £60 black skidmarx hugger or the £90 silver ermax one? i like the look of the skidmarx one but can't get it in silver. the ermax one is ok but i'm not keen on the holes or the down sloaping chain guard??

also, I can't decide if a black hugger on a silver bike is going to look understated or stupid! help!



OR



also getting a OEM seat cowl and fender extender so will post pics asap.

I've got a Carbon Skidmarx hugger and it fitted like a dream.

BUT I've got a '99 'X' model and I've heard that the Skidmarx fitting on later models are a bit more of a pain.

I personally think that black for a hugger is OK on any bike, but colour coded is a tad smarter. (I just went for carbon as I have a whole black and carbon thing going on with my bike!)

I've got the ermax hugger. Good colour match.

Also, it didnt come with those holes, so you might want to phone them and ask.

thanks for the input, silver ermax it is.

found out that it doesn't have those holes which is a bonus.

I'll go with colour coded and deffinately make sure the chain guard is part of it as one I got sent for my 650 didn't have the chain guard.
