Seat cowl removal
 

Hi guys, I've recently bought myself a tailpack and I've had to take my seat cowl off and put my pillion seat back on.. The cowl was on the bike (curvy) when I bought it but it came with the seat separately.

Having taken the bracket that the cowl attached to off, and put the seat on I've found there's a bit of a gap round the seat and the two huge slots either side where the bracket bolted on.

It looks like a bit of the fairing's missing... got any ideas what it's called so I can track down a new part?

Cheers.

:)

got a picture?

maybe you're missing the grabrail?

Er.. not today... :lol:

I'll have another look tonight but I think you're right about the grabrail... Cheers. :)

this is what mine looks like, if the problem is at the rear you're missing a grab rail, if the problems at the front it's where the helmet hooks are and is no problem :wink:

Why's that :?:

If you're scared about it falling off, or scratching the cowl, get some of that non-slip matting & cut it to size - problem solved. My local Morrisons supermarket sells it for £1.99

It looks like this stuff & is black - http://www.smallparts.com/products/descriptions/mat.cfm

It's good at keeping pillions from sliding around as well :D

cheers

Ahah, so it's normal then. :lol: Just looks odd because it's missing the grabrail.

Cheers dude. :D

Mr Toad - The seat cowl itself is dubious and attached in a less than solid way (I'd been resorting to using electrical tape to keep it secure) so it's better just to put the seat back on. Cheers though, I might get some of that stuff anyway to stop the bungees from manking up my rear fairing. :)

glad we could help :wink:
