I was just thinking about getting some myself..... I have herd of some people slotting the front guard and raising it up with use of washers. But would be interesting to hear if anyone has done it on here.

Well I have in fact now made some brackets to rise the front up as it literally has to move on to the top of the original bracket bolt holes I'll put some photos up later (on a side note the tires are f@*king awesome to ride)

Supercorsa's are the best choice for out and out performance road legal wise. They do however lose performance with heat cycles, and age. Sc1 compound F+R overall work best for the 400's I've found.

Here's a pic of the rear just to show clearance I picked up a stone that's what's caused the mark on the hugger

On the front to raise the hugger I used two small thin pieces of stainless steel drilled the required holes and bolted it all up, then on the front part of the hugger I used one of them tiling/grouting plastic sheets from b&q cost about £1.50 it gives the front a bit of movement in case you do pick up crud off of the road rather that shatter than my hugger :roll:
