    With winter approaching, I am wondering whether to fit a hugger & fender extender - anyone fitted one and if so, what do you think of it?
    I have has huggers on several bikes in the past and was never that impressed with them, although fender extenders usually seem to do a good job.

    I went with Powerbronze hugger and a Pyramid fenda extender - with the new lockdown I've not had the chance to test them on the road, but they look Ok on the bike.

    I had a fenda extenda on the front of my Tiger 800, it matched well and helped to keep crud out of my radiator. It was not noticable to me when riding, but definitely when cleaning the bike.

    I got the Givi one. In love with it. I have always loved that GS style.

    Mine seems to be strong enough so far, but it does not seem to be too effective at stopping the shock & underside of the bike getting covered in crud!
