    Any problem let me know I can solve anything apart from the chain guard... That was one tricky fucker to fit...
    Even my dealer struggled.. They had to use a cut down alan key one of the mechanics had to get to the bolts....

    You need to move the wheel back, you have to turn it on the adjuster, I had to turn the wheel as well to make sure it went right back... Letting air out may also help...

    I slackened the chain as fair as it would go pushed as hard down on the c spanner as I could and it came to a stop so I didn't think I could get it to go back anymore?

    Hi Gary, did you manage to fit the Hugger okay? It's a real pain in the butt but as SB has advised is the way to fit!
