Huggers in the UK

[OB_Ken]

I have had trouble finding a manufacturer producing Huggers for the Hayabusa in the UK.
Any UK 'boosa boys may be interested to know they are available in Carbon from ART on 0115 985 4941 at £99.00 (bargain).

Pardon my ignorance, What's a Hugger? Is this something that costs $60/38 pounds a nite?

A Hugger is a rear mudguard / fender tht fits close to the rear wheel, mounted on the swingarm. Typically it has an integral chain guard moulded in as well.

They work and keep all the crap from our Brit roads off the rear suspension.

is it just a "hugger" or does it have an integrated chain guard?

Do they have a website for us US guys to see?

Marty, from the printed information that appears in the UK magazines the ART "hugger" has an integral chain gaurd. I have not seen any web site information within the printed ad.

The Hayabusa specific item was also not listed in there chart. (Fast Bikes Aug 99)
