Re: [ST] Fw: Rear hugger install on an 01

[Todd J <me_shucker@xxxxxxxxx>]

I would appreciate some local lister assistance, but my challenge is that I am in the process of moving to a new state (Maine to Virginia). I picked up the hugger since I have a good relationship with my local shop and this was "on my list". Given what we have going on around here for the move, it wont be until mid May that I even play with it. ANOTHER reason I was thinking of just having the shop do the work.

I can't remember for sure but I think I installed my last hugger with the 
wheel "in situ". You definitely have to take off the brake line cover and 
the chain gaurd that's in place now, as the Triumph hugger came attached 
to a new chain gaurd.

But it would be way easier with the wheel off. Where are you located? 
Perhaps there is a liSTer close enough to help.
