You'll not need special tools. I just followed the instructions, that are 
pretty clear and straight-forward. After removing the rear wheel remember 
to clean very well the swingarm near the shock, especially the part that 
will be covered by the hugger.
I did not install the little tab to be covered by the Triumph logo onto the 
connection point between the hugger and the chain protector... because I 
didn't like that too much... as you can see in the picture I just uploaded.

Ciao.
