    Bros/Hawk/VFR Hugger fit

    Is there any difference between the Hawk/Bros Swinger and the VFR Swinger, that would prevent A VFR hugger fitting the Bros/hawk.
    All I can think of is a variation in cast mounting points for the chain guard and other similar bolt ons

    VFRs use a linkage on the rear suspension.. so the "front" part of the swingarm is a tad bit diffrent.. it may be a bit too long... so you may need to account for that when you mount it.

    overall, its totally possible, ive never done it, but ive been looking at pics.
    currently my bike throws a HUGE roostertail in the rain. i mean HUGE. and the rain whipping back off the wheel hits my right pant leg, where it wants to pour into my boot, no matter how i overlap the raingear. its enough water, i can feel it hitting the suit. lol.
    so ANY good hugger design info you find, post it up.. i kinda need one.. but i want one without a chainguard or any "extra" stuff. a minimalist one if you will..

      You can't go wrong with a Thorsten Durbahn hugger! Fits like a glove and if you really want the minimalist approach, ask him to fab you one W/O the chain guard.
