General topics » Hugger and engine protector

Come on then, let´s see yours!

I am looking for some inspiration from you all.....there seem to be a feww out there but they vary massively in price too.

For parking lot tip-overs I have the BMW head covers.

To protect the rear shock both of us have the MachineArtMoto Mudsling.

Hi Spainy. I bought a Puig hugger, it fits perfectly, is strong and looks like a factory fit, if you peel of the Puig sticker!

It cost £165 or so, it's expensive, but once you have pressed the buy button and fitted it, you'll forget about the cost, just about!

Good luck

Thanks! What is the difference between the two head covers? Just different brand?

Yes the covers in the top picture are sold by BMW. The black covers on my wife's bike is a aftermarket company.
The MachineArtMoto covers are cheaper than the BMW covers.
Both covers work well. My wife started with the BMW covers but sometimes she would catch her pant leg on them so last year I swapped them for the MachineArtMoto covers.

Yep seen it, looks really nice but seems expensive for what it is tho. I still like it though.

I could not edit my post because Wessie replied.

One advantage of the BMW covers is the black plastic piece can be replaced for around $20 if you have a tip over.
You can buy one side of the MachineArtMoto covers but it costs $108 US.

Why not fit the AUS/NZ rear fender in Lee's pictures above? IIRC, it's about 45Euro for you folks........

I went the avant guard route, with bmw head protectors, Wunderlich hugger and the wider aus/nz rear fender/mudguard insert which does keep the rear lense assembly clearer for longer.
Optional is to copy the bmw roundel from the topbox and fit to the avantguard to hide in plain sight a non bmw part.

Bargain. Doesn´t look much like the Puig one tho lmao but it´s a great price.

That's the New Zealand rear mudguard not the Mudlsinger (that protects the rear shock), or the Puig hugger.
