Rear Hugger/Ducktail
« on: May 21, 2021, 09:19:40 »
Hi,
I bought a brand new DL650 XT just a few days ago. I have been out in the rain and when came back home I noticed the top case was full of mud/grime. Can anyone suggest a solution to this problem?

I have the Givi hugger on mine and that doesn't stop the top box getting dirty.

One of options for Duck tails is this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/372645907809?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649 and I've seen others which look expensive for just a sheet of metal / plastic with a bend in it!

Hi Oop North John,
Thanks for that. I have found an altenative solution for my V-Strom 650 XT, this can be purchesed from Pyramid plastics from the following link:
