I gave into the pull of the S3 and am completely happy about my decision even though I now have a bike that cost around 4k more than my pickup did. On the issue of being cheap, I really want a rear hugger but have not been happy at the prices I've seen. $200 for some plastic? Cmon. I found the thread about the make your own fender eliminator on here and that turned out well. Anyone have one for a rear hugger? I'm a starving college kid.

Well you're usually doing wheelies and at that angle it is hard for junk to stay on the underside. Wanna donate yours to an Fusion White 07? I hear those yellow models need to shed all the extra weight they can anyways, with the restrictor plate that triumph puts on them (something about yellow being the international symbol for 'scared') :-D :-D :-D

sorry man, I'm purdy happy with the rear hugger right now. But if'n I ever decide to part with, I will keep ya in mind. :wink: :-D Another thing I used to do is always keep an eye on the classified section and try to pester the hell outta people with S3's 4 sale with aftermarket accessories on them. Lots of times ya can land a purdy good deal that way. :wink: :-D Every aftermarket part on my bike came from a member of this forum or the 'other' one. :wink: :-D

Cheers all! :chug:



:-D :-D :-D
