yeh go for it mate. I did it in about 15 mins. Was gonna do it Kwak green but decided white would stand out more and match the seat cowling.

yeh the four screws holding the hugger on my bike were so rusted we had to drill them out and then tap new threads in the frame and then I put bolts through each one with locking washers and shear nuts on the backs of them so there's no chance it's gonna come loose! biggrin

Got a list of stuff I wanna do over the winter for next summer, and to drill it off it means dropping the back wheel and I'm too lazy to do it ATM :p u never know I might do it sooner if I get the time one rainy afternoon :)

i think they all have those hole mate. Mine has them. Might be to secure the brake hose to the hugger to stop it moving around?.. well.. thats what i've done as u can see in the pic..
