Should I get a Hugger?
£75 for a new black hugger for my Blue K4
Good price? Would it look good? Would it increase resale value of my bike by more or less than £75? Thanks for your thoughts |

What make hugger is it ? £75 sounds a reasonable price.
Looks are a personal thing. IMHO a black one is going to look better than a blue one would on your bike. It wont add any value to your bike. However it might make it easier to sell should a prospective owner want a hugger on their bike.

You could buy a used one off ebay or someone on here for about £20.
I like to have one as it protects the rear shock better and reduces spray off the back wheel.It won't stop your bike getting dirty though.

It's Busters
 Was browsing for something free post if I'm paying £5 for the disc lock Thanks Dr Rich care to elaborate, could agree not worth it but didn't think anyone would actually not like one? £20 seems a bit hopeful, but if you're offering, yes please. |

Perhaps it could increase the valuse by preserving things a little. But I'm just giving personal opinion...which is worth absolutely nothing. An aside. I 'had to choose not to frequent' another internet forum for daring to say I thought a hugger made by one of the 'boy's' was overpriced, looked crap and why on earth would anyone put a hugger on a 12GS anyway' . Which I stand by

Although I had a huge rear hugger on my SV I prefer the smaller ones if going for one such as this...
