Hi !! All

does anyone know who makes a hugger for an 05 Tiger without a built in chain guard ???? as i would like to keep the crap from the wheel off my chain. have phoned N W S and they don`t do one, or does your N W S hugger not chuck everything onto the chain ?? i have never had a bike with a hugger so im only supposing that this is what happens. need feedback pleeeeze !! as my bike will not always be on the road.

NWs are good quality and ver helpful as a company. The huggers they do have a built in chainguard that replaces the original. There should be no more crap on or off your chain with the hugger than without.

I have an NWS hugger fitted to my 04 and it is great. I always use NWS where possible as their quality is top notch. Do not worry about getting crap on the chain as the NWS chainguard is at least as good as the original.

Kuzzin Kenny,

I have not heard of anyone yet that makes a hugger for the '05 swinging arm?

The earlier NWS ones won't fit that new set up i guess?

I'll bear it in mind while im around and about.

Thanx for your help guys !! have called N W S and they say there is an 05 Hugger in production as we speak and its a 2 week waiting list if anyone wants one. it is a complete hugger and chainguard so if all you guys are happy with this type, i will go with that and order one too.

My 05 N W S hugger arrived after 3 week wait and it is worth the £87.50 inc p&p as it is a very well made piece of kit. no adjusting or cutting it just goes right on.

cheerz again for your help guys !!

whutz a hugger :???:

What I really need to know is who makes a good after market chain guard for an '05 Tiger? The stock plastic guard on my Tiger is cracked and needs replacement.

Thanks.

Thanks for the lesson in navigating the website and the picture.

What does a hugger do that makes me need one?
