Can you run a hugger without making modifications to the factory undertail??

I too have the Black Pyramid. Just need to install it. I have put about 10-coats of polish on it. Anyone know if this rubs against the swingarm?? I was thinking of putting rubber between the swingarm and hugger.

just got my pyramid hugger ($190 shipped) yesterday from dave and it looks and fits great! there is little room for error so i would suggest mounting the black bracket that comes with it for the brake line side first before you drop the hugger in. other than that, an easy install! :whistle:

thanks for posting pics, Schism! Really like how it extends deep into the rear tire. Just about sealed my choice of a rear hugger when I am ready to buy one! :)

I agree, there is very little room for error. I ended-up have all mount points loose and then tightened in series to finally get them all the way down.

Kind of wish I went with the carbon, but we ALL know that BLACK IS the fastest color!

leviathan is right! you have to call david direct because he doesn't have the gen 2 listed on his site.

If the pictures that Schism posted are not good enough, I can post a couple of pics. Mine is installed also.
