A carbon fiber rear hugger for an Aprilia RSV4 (2009-now) or Tuono V4 (2011-now) is a motorcycle accessory that is designed to replace the factory-installed rear hugger with a lightweight, high-strength carbon fiber alternative.
The rear hugger, also known as a chain guard, is a component located at the back of the motorcycle that helps to protect the rider and motorcycle from debris, water, and mud. A rear hugger made of carbon fiber is a popular upgrade among motorcyclists due to its lightweight and high-strength properties, which can help to reduce the weight of the motorcycle while improving its overall performance.
The carbon fiber rear hugger for the Aprilia RSV4 or Tuono V4 is designed to fit the specific model and year of the motorcycle. It is typically a direct replacement for the stock rear hugger and can be installed with minimal modifications or special tools. The carbon fiber construction of the rear hugger also provides a distinctive look to the motorcycle, which is a popular reason for choosing this upgrade.
In addition to its aesthetic appeal, a carbon fiber rear hugger can also improve the aerodynamic profile of the motorcycle and prevent debris from accumulating in the rear suspension or chain, which can help to extend the lifespan of these components.
