    Custom Rear Hugger Gsf 1200 streetfighter

    Hey guys I'm just curious if someone could help me find out where or how to make (or buy) a custom "outer rear hugger" (if that's what you call it) for my streetfighter bandit.
    Because of all the laws with the 45 degree angle thing with the rear fenders I want to make it at least one tiny bit less of an attraction with the Police!

    Image attached is of a zx7 that's for sale on gumtree and its "outer rear hugger".

    Another angle;

    If anyone knows where I am able to get something similar made somewhere out of aluminium or something similar, let me know.
    Share your ideas if you have anything else in mind as well!

    My Bandit at the moment;

    Can also post on nswbandits.forumotion.net/forum.htm if you like. Gus on their fashions some pretty reasonable fibreglass stuff.

    That fighter belongs to a PSB'er (there can't be 2 of those ... things out there that look that similar). Check some of the build threads and then PM whomever it is for some info.

    That kind of "fender" still won't be legal though. In order to be legal it has to extend from a point in front of the tyre to a point 45 degrees rearward of the axle, not just cover a point 45 degrees rearward of the axle.

    This information is straight from a pits inspector less than 6 weeks ago.

    Just something to keep in mind.
    Feels good man.

    The Ducati Multistrada has one just like it from factory .. and Ive seen it on another bike too, I just can't remember.
    Some say he eats sidchrome for breakfast

    Some say he only showers on even days of the week

    Some say he put an R1 motor in a coffee machine

    All we know is he's Hewie.
