I'll let you know guys, I've asked him some pictures. Ali has already bought a seat unit from him, maybe he can tell you what he thinks about it...

Well, this is the seat unit that was fitted to Ali's bike that I raced on Sunday.

I can say this, the seat is reasonably solid but is already showing cracks. Also, it raises the seat height considerably.

Just some considerations.

Either it does, either it doesn't. He has made different seat units for the SSie. Last season I had one on my bike which is a cover for the standard seat, but I think the other guys are after a real monoposto seat unit...

I've attached a pix of my bike last year.

I would certainly be interested in one for my 750SSie Minitwin if the price is right

Tonio have you got the one you used last year that covers the standard seat ? I've put the standard seat and tank back on mine but still need the rear bodywork, if you aren't using your old one, want to sell it ?

Good point about the seat height - the bike's are already tall especially if you raise the ride height to quicken the steering.
