Default Rear hugger, look better without?

Seen a few F3's without the rear hugger, think it looks better.

Do you all agree? Mine is silver and the bike is black

I took my friend's F3's chain guard/hugger so I can be legal at the track. It will also save the chain lube poop from flinging all over my bike's tail. Yeah it looks a little dorkier but I think it is worth it.

I agree, if you happen to get caught on some wet roads a hugger is going to make your bike that much easier to clean up and you dont have to worry about dirt being flung onto your shock which Im sure is horrible for it.


I was considering painting my hugger a silver color to better match my frame, ive seen it on some f3's and i think it looks good-ish

OR I was once considering making a carbon fiber wrap for the rear hugger. Its expensive considering it is strictly for looks. I think you could just do one layer over the plastics and but both pieces and everything would look fine.
