Thank you! I am pretty sure this will cover the splashing to the rear and top. So going with the tail tidy wont be an issue😊. One thing I missed out: Saree gaurd is mandatory in India😬
@@nithinajesh838 Yeah, the rules in KL are pretty strict, bro. I'm from TN, and here they don't really bother about the saree guard. Maybe try explaining the splatter issues to the police from a practical point of view.😬🙌
@@himuaggarwal The bike is somewhat on the heavier side for me. If I somehow loose control, there is possibility of a fall. And by misfortune if the bike falls at a particular angle over a rock(which somehow happens to be on the exact spot😅), there is a chance for engine damage, probability of which is very low, but is still there. So may be as a precausion you can have a crash guard (especially if you are into offroading). I am a defensive rider, so not planning on installing crash guard yet
@@nithinajesh838 Thanks Man, I'm thinking to install get crash guard but confusing between after market and in-house one . as i heard that after market ones can cause vibration
Will try. Already have a long wishlist of accessories which is growing day by day. 1. Official mudguard extension kit 2. Official luggage rack 3. Not yet decided on top box or bag 4. Matte PPF 5.Helmet locks x 2 mounted on luggage rack 6. Some custom works for reattaching the saree guard And so on.... I feel these are the essential ones for me. With some custom works, we can fit the number plate on the tyre hugger. Will have to get a tail tidy in that case
@@nithinajesh838 Please add videos about these updates as well as you progress. Or atleast share your instagram id/whatsapp number as I'm also planning to do most of these mentioned customisations. Thanks!
Keeping the rear suspension at lowest preload will lower seat height when you sit on it by a very small amount. But will affect ride quality. I keep it at medium usually as half the time i ride solo and half the time with a pillion. Adjustment tool is provided with the bike.
Actually, there is a way, just checked. Lower portion of saree guard has to be welded to opposite side properly. Then it will also fit. Not sure how much it will cost
Hi, I bought the same. I have a few questions please. 1. It's written "KTM" on the tyre hugger, was it the same for yours as well (just to confirm if i have received the right product) 2. The metal clamp i have received, both are the same. Would that be okay? I did not get that 'H' like clamp as you shown in the video Asking this because I'll be installing this only in the first service, which would happen only after a month from now.
1. After I removed the sticker only I saw the KTM logo. Actually from the service centre itself the service guys (who services the KTMs too) told me its the they have fitted the same tyre hugger in multiple ktm adventures. Hyperrider just added the brackets to match the triumphs with same product. The KTM logo is not seen unless you look close. 2. One of my friends too got same bracket on both sides just like you got. For him the hugger was almost close to tyre so he had to heat it with a heat gun and slightly bent it. Not sure whether its due to the brackets. But for me it was a perfect fit
@@yahankc007 😰😰 I'll get it installed only in the first service. I really hope this would solve the problem as we see in the video. However, knowing about your experience, i doubt it now 😢
@@yahankc007 For me it worked just fine. Goint to install the mudguard extension kit from triumph (450rs) to solve mud coming on rear shock. My wife(pillion) is happy now. It was a nightmare for her before installing the hugger
Thanks machane .. i was looking for a tyre hugger .. as its raining since the day i bought speed here in telangana 🦹♂️ i will get this one . Helpful video 🥳
I usually tell them its a scrambler man it is not suppose to look clean 😅
Nice video BTW
😅
Great video, man! Really appreciate it. Do you think I can rely just on the tyre hugger if I go with a tail tidy? It's 1800 including shipping, right?

Great video man, just one question do you feel you need a crash guard ?

At start he literally roasted tvs
Bro can you add a rear numberplate attachment to the tyre hugger … this bike will give Ducati scrambler look if we can add that
Will try. Already have a long wishlist of accessories which is growing day by day.
1. Official mudguard extension kit
2. Official luggage rack
3. Not yet decided on top box or bag
4. Matte PPF
5.Helmet locks x 2 mounted on luggage rack
6. Some custom works for reattaching the saree guard
And so on....
I feel these are the essential ones for me.

How to adjust the suspension and reduce the height? I am ok if the functioning of the bike changes due to that... 😅
Keeping the rear suspension at lowest preload will lower seat height when you sit on it by a very small amount. But will affect ride quality. I keep it at medium usually as half the time i ride solo and half the time with a pillion. Adjustment tool is provided with the bike.
Hello Bro, how do we deal with the MVD? Wouldn't they issue chalan for removing the saree guard?
That is an issue. I will try to explain to them. No other way.
Good video bro, any idea if we can install this on speed 400 without removing saree guard ?
Thank you! And there is no way to install this tyre hugger without removing saree guard. I tried. The parts overlap😢
Actually, there is a way, just checked. Lower portion of saree guard has to be welded to opposite side properly. Then it will also fit. Not sure how much it will cost
Thanks bro
I love the commentary funny as fuck
Hey, you did this in Kollam Triumph?
Yep

Did your hugger solve the purpose? As I too have bought the Same hugger but for me it’s throwing mud till the pillion’s back.

@@nithinajesh838 you must have not ridden fast and also is mudguard extension kit available in triumph showroom?

These tyre huggers are also not that effective, after installation also mud is getting splattered on pillion and driver too
@@saiteja-bu4vp At 80+ speed the huggers are having almost zero effect. But on normal rides my wife have stopped nagging me with the mud issue😬
