Ok guys, I'm new to this forum so go gentle with me please !! I've just traded in a 750ss for a brand new 749 ! What a bike !! I've ordered termi's which are fingers crossed due in this month ! I also ordered a seat cowl but the dealer has absolutely no idea when it will be in ! Anyone got an idea where i can get one from ? Its the fibre glass cover which replaces the pillion seat pad if this helps !! Cheers in advance for any advice given ! Rob

Try eBay,usually a couple on there.Look under 749 and 999 and change the area to worldwide.You are most likely to see a carbon fibre one,don't worry about buying from europe or USA.It's easier if they use PAYPAL but the Germans tend to prefer bank transfers which cost about £10.I'll keep a lookout for you and send a U2U if i find one.

I'll have a diet coke please Rob.

They are mostly direct replacements of the pillion seat, no other mods required.

I bought a fibreglass one and had it painted red, but have since gone with the mono subframe and plastics, so am looking to get rid of it...if you're interested, u2u me.

Oh, and welcome

I know! Ive got a stack of parts lying about the house! When I had the Bip set up, I was desperate to get rid of the pillion seat, but the genuine mono plastics are the dogs!!
