Hi to all,
I've just bought a 2001 R1 and love it to bits. Anyway does anyone know where I can get a crap flap from ( I think thats what they're called) that fixes to the bottom of the swing arm to protect the rear suspension linkage. Any information would be great, thanks.

Do you mean a hugger by any chance? Smile

You could do worse than try here for a start

Nah, it already has the hugger attached to the top of the swing arm it just does'nt go down below it. I've seem these flaps on Fazors, they're a bit like a mud flap on a car.

Check out those there and see if there're any which look like what you want. So far as I was aware, the hugger is all you can get that keeps the crap off the rear suspension.

The cheap (free) way is to get a car inner tube from a tyre suppliers and slip it over your rear shock, fasten top and bottom with cable ties. Wink
