Hi im Dan from Fargo ND
I have a 2001 Monster 900 Sie (First bike was an old 85 FZ750)
Just got back from a 2500 mile trip all through Colorado, which efectively double the miles that I had put on my bike in the 3 years I have owned it.
Kind of annoyed right now cause I just chopped the tail and the bracket I made caused the plate to rub on the tire and the hugger got caught on said bracket and broke.

Anyways I'm fairly new here, although I have known about the DML(Nazi's) since I got my bike but only found out about this place a few months ago.

No idea how to post pics atm maybe ill get some up later

Welcome Dan, that sounds like quite the road trip! [moto]

Looking forward to seeing some pictures.  We have a FAQ on how to post them, feel free to PM me if you still have questions.

Good luck getting your hugger sorted out.  You might want to check out the Accessories & Mods forum too.

I found this to be a help, I'm going to give it a go in a couple of weeks...

Well the main problem was just due to the bracket being at not enough of an angle and me being a fatass, so it would bottom out on a bigger bump and leaned, just bending it up helped a ton.  It was thanks to all the info on this site that I even had the balls to give it a go anyways.
