Todd - I am sure you don't have to remove the brake line (I installed my
hugger and that is way beyond my skills) - I think there is a cover on top
of the chain guide bit of the hugger you just remove, pop in the brake
line and put the cover back on.

Well that about sums up some of my "issues". Don't have the tools for
removal nor have I removed the rear wheel before. So, yes, it is somewhat
of a big deal to me. Hence my question about the wheel removal for the
hugger (Triumph brand btw). I had talked with my service manager and she
thought it was not nec to remove it, but wasn't totally certain. So, how
about other tools for the job, should I expect to remove the brake line to
route it through?
I am really trying to gain a picture of the amount of work required.
Since I have a 4 yr old boy running around, who would rather play with me
than learn some of dad's interesting new words, I would like to understand
my shop time needs, if possible.
Thanks for the feedback folks!

never done it, don't have the tools (socket and long enough wrench), or
don't do these things themselves (a guy I work with has a Sprint and it is
pushing it for him to check his own tire pressure...). I agree - buy the
tools (not that expensive) and easily recover the cost on tire
replacements.

What's the big deal with taking off the rear wheel? It makes the hugger
install a snap. Buying the socket pays for itself by allowing you to take
the wheel off to take it in to a shop for replacing tires. Rod
They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary
safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.
