Sportisi Hugger (blue)
Heres a pic of mine installed I just thought I would share how mine came out. I really like the way it changes the look of the bike by filling in the empty rear section. It goes great with my 150/60 but I had to add a few washers. Everthing was pre-drilled and fit ok. Thanks to Matt (ztrack) for helping me get this product.

i really like the sportisi rear hugger...it covers the tiny rear swing arm of the 250..giving it a nice beefy appearance..very nice.

The rear hugger really changes the way the bike looks. Your photos have convinced me to get one myself. Thanks
Btw how hard was it to install the rear hugger? |

green would be nice to balance the bike out black would be a hole and not pop.

Hey patrick the tire rides and looks great. Thanks for your advice it was a perfect fit with plenty of room and a perfect combo with the hugger. Still need to get the front tire installed but im gonna wait til I get my wheels powdercoated.

Im glad you liked the pics the install was easy except for removing and reinstalling the rear brake caliper. Its only 2 bolts but its a little hard to get to. Not a big deal though.

Michael,
Can you elaborate on adding a few washers? (can you take a pic of where you added the washers for clearance?) I'm getting a set of bt-016s (going with the 150/60 size) installed on Tues and I'm considering replacing my Scott's hugger for this one. Thanks.

Right were the red circle is on both sides between the hugger and the arm cover. I think I put about 2 or 3 on each side but I forgot. It was actually supposed to fit the 150/60 but maybe I did something wrong with the install. It looks fine like this though you cant even notice the washers Last futzed with by Shift250R; September 19th, 2009 at 07:47 AM. Reason: picture |

shift, looks good. i think that hugger is one of the better looking ones on the market.
on a side note, imho that exhaust hanger kind of takes away from the looks of your bike. have you seen this hanger? http://mysite.verizon.net/res7x2ni/e...ngerninja250r/ zartan sells them. she is a member on this site. |

^ or you can keep with the sportisi theme. But I think there is nothing wrong with what he has now. Why blow $70 or even $55 when you can have it your way for $5

You *really* need to start making bundles! Bundle a hugger, fender eliminator or undertail, that exhaust hanger / peg eliminator, and an aftermarket rear seat cowling. I'd buy them all!

I plan on doing a track pack. which will be exhaust hanger, exhaust, rearsets, and clipons all in one price. other packs will come. but I need to start making money before I do that.

I'm thinking about the hugger, but how well will it fit if I end up moving to a larger rear tire, like a 140 or 150? I'm going to be putting some better track tires on and don't think i'll have much choice about moving up in size.

It will fit them fine. Though with like a 150 you may need to throw in some washers for better clearance. I think a 140/70 shouldn't need any additional spacers.

How did you get your shift lever to be much lower than the foot peg? I bought Cycle Control rearset risers also, but my shifter is almost leveled with the foot peg... I'd like to to be 1 inch lower. It makes for uncomfortable shifting when it's so high.

^ he has an adjustable shift rod. If you do not then you will be unable to adjust your shifters position. If you do then adjust it.
