Hugger on Ebay

Anyone here pick up a hugger off ebay listed by Recklessmotorcycles.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...OC:MOTORS:1123

Saw where they have sold several for the Superhawk and wondering if these are the same as the Pit-Eck ones that don't fit.

I got one of these huggers. all i had to do was paint in and drill holes for the screws. seems to fit nicely for a cheap hugger.

Is it made of fiberglass or ABS, and how thick is the material?

I looked thru their previous listings and saw where they sold one for $40 and another for $45. I made an offer of $40 and somebody offered $45. Not sure if it sold or the listing just expired. If someone on here won it, let us know how the quality is. Thanks.

I picked one up about a month ago... Ill fitting, slightly misshaped. Cracked at the rear mounting point while trying to finesse it in. Not worth the $ IMO.

Also wanted to add that the chain guard portion doesn't quite reach the sprocket cover... it's off by about two inches.

Its a deterent for tail gaters. Although with how loud the bike is now I think a steady 8000 rpm will be plenty detering for them. Lol

I have one and painted it flat black. It works great for an inexpensive hugger on my Superhawk. I have an expensive Harris CF on my RC 51 and they both do the same job. Get it, you wont be disapointed unless you are looking for bling, then it costs more $.

Well, I just jumped on this. Asked the seller to lower the price a bit and he went to $100. Not sure if I really go for the hugger look, but I know Carbon looks really nice on a yellow SHawk and it should match my pipes.

Pics for sure when it shows up...
