FAQs

What is the primary benefit of installing a hugger?

The main benefit is to protect the underside of your motorcycle, specifically the rear shock and swingarm, from spray, mud, and road debris, keeping these components cleaner and potentially extending their lifespan.

Will this hugger fit my 2015 BMW R Nine T Scrambler?

This specific hugger is listed for the BMW R Nine T models 2014-2024. While it should fit the standard R Nine T, you may need to confirm fitment for sub-models like the Scrambler, as they can have slight variations in bodywork or exhaust routing.

What material is the Puig Hugger made from?

Puig huggers are typically made from durable, high-impact ABS plastic or similar materials designed for motorcycle applications.

Does the matt black finish chip easily?

While durable, any painted finish can be susceptible to chips from impacts. The matt finish may show minor scuffs more readily than a gloss finish, but it's generally resistant to fading and weathering.

Can I install this myself, or do I need a mechanic?

Installation is generally designed to be manageable for riders with basic mechanical skills and tools. However, if you are uncomfortable with motorcycle disassembly or reassembly, a professional mechanic can install it for you.

How often should I clean the hugger?

It's best to clean the hugger whenever you wash your bike, or after riding in particularly dirty conditions, to prevent buildup and maintain its appearance.

Are there other color options available for this model?

Puig often offers their huggers in various finishes, including carbon look. You may want to check for variant listings for the specific Puig hugger designed for your R Nine T model.

Troubleshooting

Hugger does not fit flush

Ensure you have the correct model year R Nine T and that no aftermarket parts are interfering. Re-check mounting points and consult the installation manual. Minor adjustments may be needed for non-OEM setups.

Mounting hardware is missing or damaged

Contact the retailer or Puig customer support with your order details to request replacement parts.

Excessive vibration or rattling

Verify that all mounting bolts are securely tightened. Check that the hugger is not making contact with other parts of the bike it shouldn't be. Use any included rubber washers or grommets.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly reduces spray and debris hitting the bike's underside.
  • Improves the bike's appearance with a clean, matt black finish.
  • Offers robust protection against road hazards.
  • Designed for specific BMW R Nine T models for a good fit.
  • Helps keep the rear shock and suspension cleaner.

Cons

  • May require minor adjustments for non-standard exhausts or modifications.
  • Installation can be more complex if the bike has aftermarket parts.
  • The matt finish may show scuffs more readily than gloss finishes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation typically involves securing the hugger to the bike's swingarm or subframe using the provided mounting hardware. Refer to the specific instructions included with the product for detailed steps, which may involve removing the rear wheel for easier access. Ensure all bolts are tightened securely but avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to the plastic.

Compatibility: This hugger is designed for BMW R Nine T models manufactured between 2014 and 2024. It is crucial to verify compatibility with your specific model year. While designed to fit stock configurations, aftermarket exhaust systems or other modifications to the rear section of the motorcycle may require custom fitting or bracketry.

Care: Clean the hugger regularly with mild soap and water. A soft cloth or sponge is recommended. Avoid abrasive cleaners or high-pressure washing directly at the mounting points, as this can degrade the material or dislodge the unit. For stubborn dirt, a degreaser designed for motorcycle use can be applied sparingly and rinsed thoroughly.
