    I put a new hugger on the blade and I think it looks the danglies for the price.£25 and £6 postage to my homestead in sunny Belfast. Not bad eh? As you may see I got those pesky rear pegs off thanks to Norman Stanleys pics which were excellent and a good visual guide. 4 hours plus on my own ,but I,m sure I could,ve done it a bit quicker if I had,ve got a mate round to hold the tank whilst I disconnected the last connecter underneath. I had to balance it facing upwards because of that and hope no disasters happened.Its a dog of a job though, but if that bike is being sold on at some time, the new buyer is getting them pegs handed to him in a Lidl bag!

    I bought one of the `chinese ` ones for my bike in silver to match my belly fairings . The fit and colour match is absolutely horrendous so learned a lesson there I think !!
    Think I`ll get a black one and am now considering getting my lower fairings resprayed black :)
