I just fitted the triumph one. Covers the bare aluminium (it fixes to the 3 holes in the bare aluminium) and matches well with the swingarm and chainguard. Very pleased with it, too expensive though. It's very discreet and not really noticable which is nice.

I have got the Triumph one but it doesn't seem to do a great deal,have seen other ones that wrap around a bit more but can't remember what brand.

More $$$ but very nice and you get the CF chain guard. Seems like a better value than the Triumph part to me

I don't know who makes what for the newest bikes, but I have a Tamburini carbon from Jack Lilley that has held up well for 4 years. Race Comp in Au. makes some high quality carbon parts too.

If you have a mind to stick with the stock exhaust or go for a aftermarket exhaust that has twin pipes, the hugger when fitted is hard to see. Because of this I decided to forgo the expensive CF options and get the plastic Triumph jobbie. It's neat, easy to fit, and does a reasonable job of keeping the shock clean.
