Man, what a saga, after over 6 months, i have the CF rear hugger i so desperately needed to complete the look of the latest version of my FZ6 Streetfighter!

I have a CF front fender, and CF tank protector, and really needed the hugger, to carry the "line" the length of the bike!

So here it is in all it's bright shiny glory...on the bike! Woof***inghoo! :rockon:

I am more than Happy! I am freaking ecstatic!

You need a more sylish way of mounting the remote resivoir. Those hose clamps look cheap compared to the rest of your bike. Maybe simply painting them black would help.

Did you have to pay extra for those massive chicken strips? :D j/k...........

Lol, that's actually a "Secondary" chicken strip! The Tyre is actually being used to the edge in Sportsriding moding, and then i go and commute to meetings, etc, on very straight roads during the week!

Dont worry, it gets ridden properly! :rockon:
 
It's about time you got that sorted!

Looks great.

Now, if it would only fit my bike ;) I should email him and see but I don't think it will fit my chain guard.

About time i got it sorted! More likely, Australia post finally got something to someone!!! The right someone! I wonder where the 1st hugger ended up??? I bet it aint in Customs still!!!

As for it not fitting cause of your chain guard, i dont understand...you remove the OEM chain guard/ hugger. It's a direct swap for a FZ6 S2.

For some reason I thought the 06 was a different chain guard to the 08. Hmmmm, I'll have to check this out further - I have always wanted more CF on my bike.

Oh, this 06 FZ6 S1, has an 07 FZ6 S2 swingarm, just like yours...

Looks the goods mate :thumbup: Been a long time coming so it would want to :D

Long time coming....you bloody reckon! :eek:

Geez, it is the most trouble i have had with the many troubles i have had getting this bike to where it's at now...buying & sending/ receiving parts, etc internationally is fraught with stress, uncertainty, and the Chaos factor!!!

And this bike has stuff on it from France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Germany, USA, Canada, England, Hong Kong, Singapore, and good ol Australia!

I got some more CF today...he....he...
 
I have the same hugger and love it , also have the front CF fender and the CF rear set inserts from China. The weave matches the rear hugger from Portugal perfectly.

I know I know...lol...I end up with the same bumpy blue chicken strips from time to time after riding my bike in the city. Just messing with you.
