What else can I do?
Re: What else can I do?
Footpegs? A bit pricey but I like the look of these ones. May give more of an aftermarket rearset look.

Only one can, I think I'm up to two per bike over the winter, then again they always come out the other side like winter never happened

Well...
You could get rid of the Öhlins sticker from the mud guard...
Or do they pay you for advertisement?

Ah but on his bike it's part of the hugger. IMO it would look better with a black hugger.sirch345 wrote:Only my 2p worth, but I'd like to see the original type of chain guard fitted![]()

As for 'what else can I do'... Spray it matt black with cheap rattle cans with a skull motif & throw in a Maltese cross or two in aswell. Recover the seat in fake tiger stripes or leopard spots & some nice ape hangers to finish the effect. Job done simples!

Mac, that is very true, but that Pyramid hugger is designed for the standard chain guard to fit over it. I should know as I have the very same on my bikeMacV2 wrote:Ah but on his bike it's part of the hugger.sirch345 wrote:Only my 2p worth, but I'd like to see the original type of chain guard fitted![]()

Mind you I didn't like the way the Pyramid chain guard (part of the hugger) fitted with the standard chain guard going over the top of it. So being the fussy bu**er I am, I had to fabricate a bracket in metal so I was happy with it

Chric, I also like it in Red, same as minechric wrote:yes i had a black hugger and swapped it for red and red looks betterMacV2 wrote:Ah but on his bike it's part of the hugger.
