CarbonUK Huggers

Just a correction on the huggers if I may ! - the standard carbon hugger is an exact copy of the plastic street triple hugger (without the Triumph logo), the extended hugger is ...... an extended version of the same thing ... it is not a Daytona hugger, the Daytona hugger does'nt fit the bike properly. It is a hugger we have designed and made ourselves using the standard hugger as a basis - I personally prefer the standard hugger but a number or people asked me to make a slightly longer one.

The parts we make fit the bike properly because I actually own a Street Triple and everything we make is fitted to my bike (not always all at the same time!).

I totally agree with the comments regarding OEM stuff, it is designed for the bike and is generally better quality than aftermarket products it is also fully tested by the UK DOT (not that that is really necessary for an item such as a hugger) - 100% of the stuff we produce is not made by Triumph which is why we make it - if Triumph made it we would'nt bother to make it - honest !

I don't go on the forum very often so if you have a query like the one about the hugger, just drop me a line on the site and I'll give you a straight answer.

safe riding..
