...and this is how the Skidmarx hugger attaches...I'm not so sure it would be damage free and very secure...IMO

Ok......... Just came home from a great holiday with my girlfriend in Crete.... Now, its 5 days until i get my licence back. I am allowed back on the road from 22.of june at 00.01 o'clock. And you can bet at at that time i'll start up and go for a long midnight ride It doesnt matter if its nighttime, cause its bright all night here.... But now i am almost out of patient........ Next saturday, we have a local happening for bikes, the "route 666"... and i will attend :p 400km and maybe 150-200 bikes.... A bit eager to join in there...

I'm BACK

Got the licence back, and it was valid from 22.june... At 00.00 tonite i went out.... Washed the bike and enjoyed a perfect summernight Took some shots with my mobile, this was a night to remember

The pics were taken about 2 am Now some sleep, and tomorrow its gonna be some hrs on the road... And on saturday there is a roadtrip, where 100 bikes are going together.... I'll be sure taking some pics then too

Nice landscape! At what time those pictures were taken? 2 years ago I was on a motorcycle trip in Norway. Beautiful country but the speed limits really sucks and the penalties are terrible. Speed limits are good for a Harley riders or mountain bikers In Poland you can go even 300 km/h on the speed limit like 120 km/h and if you get caught you get a penalty ticket (500 zł ~ 900 NOK) and penalty points (10 - max limit is 24).
In which city do you live? In next two weeks I am planning visiting my friend in Hamar

Hi

Had to check my phone to see when they where taken... And they were taken ca. at 02.00, nighttime

If you read this post, i know all about the insane politics regarding driving, speedlimits and punishment if you get caught....

I live in a city called Ålesund.... Its a bit funny, but i have been several times in your country... The first time when i was only 7 yrs old.... Our family know a family in Poland, close to Sopot... So i have been in both Gdansk, Sopot and Gdynia many times... Sopot in summertime is as good, maybe better, then the Spain

Btw, i actually got hold of a hugger here in Norway... I was browsing the net for used parts, and came over this one. Only used one season, and taken off because he sold his bike... and i am going to pick it up next week when i am going for a trip to Oslo...

Its in perfect condition, and i got it for norwegian kr 1000.-, ( ca. 120 euros) While he paid just over 300 euros incl freight for it... Hopefully a good deal, and i hope it will look good on the bike... He said i had to loosen the backwheel, to put it in, so i have asked a friend of mine that is a mechanic, and works alot with bikes. And he is gonna help me... We'll se if i like it, because its nice with the open, sporty gap back there also

[marecki]

Oh, what a coincidence! Sopot is really nice city but it could be a little bit warmer here
I've checked where the Ålesund is and... it's located in a wonderful place!

It looks that you caught a good deal! I think, that with a hugger it looks a little bit better. However the hugger tends to vibrate on a bumpy roads and I find it irritating. I just took some photos to show you the difference

[Etaten]

Sometimes the world is not that big

Yes, Ålesund actually scored nr.1 as Norways most beautiful city.... Gotta boast a little of my hometown :p Its surrounded by the sea at almost all places... uploading a pic taken from the restaurant on the top of the mountain in the middle of the city... Its a "small" pic, and taken at night....

I am exited to test out the hugger, and hopefully it dont irritate me too much... I am not really all for putting on too much carbondetails, but this was a good deal, so lets have a try... Now i am going out for a spin, because the weather is exellent, and up here it tunrs quickly

[marecki]

Wow! It's really cool! Is in your city some job for a graduate automation and control systems engineer?
Have a good time and no police patrols on your way!

[Etaten]

Hehe....... Rolls Royce, a major player in your profesion is located here

Yeah, i hope the police are chilling at the station with the a/c on today

This saturday, 23-06-2012, we drove a 400km run and some of the road is tha national road with the number 666... Therefore this annualy tour, is called "Route 666". Tis arranged by the Harley Davidson-owners group together with a mc-shop.... Its a wonderful, scenic route.... And this year, we were about 100 bikes... Mostly locals, but alså from other cities, and a few from other countries as Germany..... I could make ut two Bmw-bikes, mine and one more :p

Here is a film when we arrived a city called Molde, and the police guided us trhuu the whole site with flash on

It was a blast of a ride

And.......... I show up on the screen in 1min,21 secunds

[Etaten]

I got mye hugger... bought it earlier this week

[skapan]

You may find that the front edge of the hugger vibrates against the swingarm when riding over bumps or when putting the bike into first gear at a stop. I found the noise to be quite annoying so I used a larger piece of fairly stiff foam to replace the small standard piece, and the noise was eliminated. Good luck with yours!

Thanx for the information... I will check it out
