    as per title , what has everybody got ? Honda don't do one to match and several are using the older one . Which in my opinion doesn't look very good as the writing etc goes in the opposite direction.
    choices are
    1) leave original scrawny little thing on

    2) but older one , as stated above which doesn't look right

    3) buy a decent looking carbon fibre one

    4) buy a hugger and get sprayed to match Dark blue front mudguard with maybe a HRC sticker on , which is maybe laquerd over and looks the part.

    5) as per 4 but in a different colour that suits the bike .

    6) Any other suggestions ?

    Any pics on what people have would be good

    toying with ideas, everybody seems to do option 1,2 or 3 not seen anyone do owt else that suits the bike. not good with photoshop either. ill have to wait for other peoples pics and ideas, that's if anybody bothers lol. reckon the back end looks bare without a hugger. shame on Honda !!!

    Get Honda racing carbon ones front and rear.

    And then put Genuine HRC stickers on them.
