MrGrn used the 600rr one for the mold. He makes them in carbon.

I got my carbon one from here...(look down the page for the SP2 version).

http://www.magicalracing.co.jp/LineUp/vtr_sp1_en.html

I ordered it online and it turned up in a week in a freekingly huge box. Amazing workmanship and sweeet fit. No regrets about the price.

Also, I tried one of the other honda bike (954) hugger mod's and it looked crap and was too small and left too much room for sludge to fly off and also required drilling etc etc...so this was a great solution for me. Very smick.

Guess what i found out today? I emailed QB Carbon and they told me the rear hugger does not fit my bike because i have a different swing arm. How dissapointing. Good thing i didnt purchase it, otherwise I would be sol.


"Hello Andrew,

Sorry but the RC-51 hugger will only fit the SP1 you have a different swing
arm on the SP2.

Many thanks Ian @ World of QB Carbon."

can anyone post up pics of the magical racing sp2 hugger installed? How large is the chain guard, from the pics it looks like it has one, but it appears to be alot more tasteful than some of the others ive seen.
