Fitted a genuine Triumph rear hugger kit but am unsure if the chain guard is below the hugger support or on top of it. The little fixing bolts are too short one way but this looks the right way.
Anyone got a pic of their hugger and chain guard fixing for me to look at please.

I had to attach the hugger tab to the underside of the chain guard using my own bolt.
Had to drill a hole in the chain guard to accomplish this.

there seems to be no other logical way to anchor the left side of the hugger.

if this makes no sense, I'll snap a pic for you.

also, the double face tape to attach it to the swingarm is useless. use silicon adhesive.
