what do you think?
I think it needs something on the front and a few sponsor stickers to finish it off.
Your probably right but with the crap weather we been having i cant get it out of the garage, walk around it and eye it up lol
:biggrin-new: has it ever been out more than twice?It will be safe in your garage

Saw the thread about stone chips under the tail unit last week, so I thought I'd do a little something to my OE hugger (on my Thunder Grey bike).
Found a metal bin in WH Smiths in a matching matt black colour for just £3.50 and cut out and stuck in a bit of extra protection.
It looks brilliant, i.e. like an original BMW design/fit, rather than a tacky add-on. :smile-new:
Obviously it'll stop the stones, but I'll have to test how much crud still comes through...but then again, I'm a fair weather biker, so not worried about this so much.

No worries. I've changed it now, just in case, but i genuinely hope he's ok.
FYI, I just had the "all clear" (whatever that means) from my hospital cancer scans this afternoon, so trust me as someone who knows, if it's something similar he really won't give a toss probably.
Many of us ride these bike cos they allow us to live life to the max...however long that is.
keep up the good work Turt, you do a good job here mate.

Do the stones not get flicked up from the back of the tyre where the hugger is useless?

Hmmmm. Maybe I should use the rest of the bin to create a Diavel style floating guard then???
