I purchased a Carbon fibre Hugger for my 2002 Tiger in March, 2005 from performancemotorcycleparts. Unfortunately I destroyed it on a 8000 mile trip from Istanbul, Turkey to Xian, China. I have tried to find performancemotorcycleparts on the internet, but failed. Does anyone know how to contact NWS directly? I have failed in this also. The NWS hugger fit perfectly and did a great job, but the roads were so ruff that I destroyed it bottoming out of the suspension with a passenger and 50 kilos of luggage.

NWS is to my knowledge no more unfortunately, but Pyramid Plastics either took them over or bought the rights:

Hi globerider try www.n-w-s.com see if this helps

PeteH

Thats the link Max21, I bought mine off them last year, tho only the fibreglass one
The clearence was fine with Anakees, but when I fitted new Avon road tyres a lot of filing at the fixing point behind the front sprocket was required
and a spacer of some 10mm needed fitting at the rear of the swingarm
Reminder to self - sort out rear bracket

Hi my anakee's are coming up for renewal how do you find the avons or am i better of sticking with the originals?

PeteH

The Anakees were good tyres and I felt confident with them in wet-like most of last year, I just didnt like the profile and thought I would ride off the edge when cornering when making progress
The Azaro`s(not storms) seem fine so far and Iv`e still got to get to the edge, maybe this year will sort the chicken strip out
Bike mag did a shoot out a bit back for tyres suitable for the Tiger and there wasnt realy a bad one, also check out the Distanzia which did quite well in the test, I had some fitted to a KLE and loved them

Thanks Pete

Hi all, ordered a hugger today from pyramid plastics, will inform if there are any probs with fitting as I am now running on Avon Distanzias. Had them fitted approx 500mls back for £140, so far I am very impressed with them, cornering and turn in have proved to be excellent both wet and dry, I run my bike throughout the year. Will be interesting to see what sort of milage I get, managed 8700 on the original Anakees, incidently the chap who fitted the Distanzias could not at the time balance the wheels and I have to say I have not noticed the slightest bit of difference regardless of speed or road conditions. Regards to all.
