    Identical size/shape as the standard 08-11, can't be 100% on the 12 onwards as see a bike in a dealers the other day with nothing fitted at all.

    Have you seen the leo vince gp pro cans yet?
    I prefer the power bronze hugger, but mine
    Came with the Honda hugger so I never bothered
    Changing it.

    Is that the one that looks like an elephants trunk ?

    If so my brother had one on his Blade, lovely sound, never really heard many different pipes to be honest just the Leo Vinci on my brothers and the Taylormade on my mates which I thought was very quiet compared to the Leo Vinci.

    What are the Yoshi, Akra, Austin, Racefit, Taylormade ones like, all around the same ??

    Has anyone fitted the 'Carbon King'/Demon Tweeks hugger and have any photos of it fitted or opinions on it.

    [​IMG]

    Reading a few other members thoughts it appears as though the genuine Honda hugger is the best fit/ finish etc but at £280 or whatever for the carbon version I think not.

    I have come across a hugger that I have been informed is an exact copy of the genuine Honda carbon version at a fraction of the price so maybe this would be an option.

    Also seen another version that is sold by several sellers ( Zero Limits/Pro Fibre/Bikers Discount ) but I do not know if it looks massive from the chain side ?

    [​IMG]Thanks for any photos if anyone has any.

    I'd give Zero Limits a wide berth!

    Virtually everything on their site states a 40 day lead time, I tested them out for a Carbon Hugger and lost patience at 44 days, fecked em off and got an OEM one from my local Honda Dealer for £175 in 24 Hrs flat.
