Keyser, Go back in and remove the checkmark below the text box where it reads, "Disable BBCode in this post." We can't see your photos.

I did put an Illmberger Hugger on (great EBAY buy!) to protect the rear shock (plus it looks cool.. and keeps the battery area clean..)

Since it's not raining - and it's above 40F - I think I'll have to go for a ride.. :-)

I've now fitted an Ilmberger hugger to keep crud off my new shock. It looks very pretty, but I must admit to being somewhat chagrined when I was on a ride with some mates last weekend. I saw the owner of a KTM Superduke had solved the same problem on his bike with a rectangle of heavy duty inner tube rubber and some zip ties. Would not please the farklers, but it does the same job for pennies.
