ha- for the serious answers thanks.. !!..
a couple of people - who's opinions i do rate highly- not decrying any here- have said no to the white hugger too.. tbh the big block thats down there seems to keep the shock clean and my OCD will prob do the rest. |

I think the white *might* work cos the bodywork of the bike near there is white, but it's a bit risky. I reckon spray it the same blue as the bodywork (tank) and black mesh. The frame, swingarm and wheels are all black so silver mesh would stand out too much...
Also - no rim tape ![]() |

I think the hugger would be better in black... But white should be ok I guess.
My bike came with rim tape. Look ok from afar but get close and it look pretty ****. |

Can only use a black hugger to, 1) blend with the tyre & 2) match the front mudguard IMO
Unfortunately any rim tape is going to be chav. +1 get a tail tidy |

I'm no good with these things. There's a very good reason why I buy all my shirt and ties for work in a matched shirt and tie set, then hang the tie in the wardrobe on the same hanger as the shirt it was bought with! My job is in IT, I let the clothing design experts do the colour coding!
I'd buy black, but only 'cos I would be worried he white would look chav. I'ts one or he other isn't it, white will either look look ![]() ![]() But anyway, if it helps here's a picture of my cousins celebration edition Bandit which is in a similar Suzuki colour scheme and has a white hugger. ![]() ![]() |

Looking at the two bikes together this Bandit
has white wheels and a white belly pan. The lower half of your bike is prodominantly black, so I'd stick with the black hugger. |

Forget it, the lower half of the fairing is white and the lines lead diagonally up from this into the white tail. The white hugger would point in the same direction and sit right in the middle. So it might actually look OK.
What did I say about those shirt and ties? So no conclusion from me, but at least you can't say I didn't think about it. |
