Ok i'm a little confused...

got a biposto 749s and want to use an original ducati mono seat unit but retain the bip subframe... is this possible?

i'm sure i've seen it done :rolleyes:

The seat unit will fit but there will be about 6 inches of subframe sticking out the back which will look stupid. You could cut it off as I have seen before but then the biposto seat unit will not fit.

You need a Mono subframe.

ok cool thanks for that, it all makes sense now... those subframes aint cheap!

not just that tho, i wanna be able to swap the seat unit from mono to bip without too much fuss... maybe a desmosidicci style unit is the way to go.

hmmmmmm

anyways thanks again

One of these is what you want, good quality, great prices and it will fit your biposto subframe i believe.

I've got one on my 749bp. Holes lined up fine, quick job to fit. Does the job.
