Default Big shout out to the TL-S owners here!!!

(dear mods, if this should be in bike talk, i apologise. feel free to move as needed)

Any chance one of you could measure up the pillion seat for me?

In an experiment to see if one fits a curvy.
Need the distance between the two locating pins on the underside, how far back is the plastic 'lug' from them, and maybe total width/length.

Of course, if there's a well-placed curvy SV nearby you could just pop it on and see what's what!

Pretty please.... with a cherry on top.

You'll have to shout louder than that ... they're all deaf from the noise from their exhausts

I tried my pillion seat on my mates TL and it would not locate into the lugs! They look the same though!

Ahh well, there you go. A nice solid, definite, absolute NO then.

You've saved me a few quid bidding on one to find this out. The g/f straddled a TL and said she preferred the strap on it, compared to the grab rail.
She'll just have to hug me more!!


Ta very much all.

The strap on the TL is useless as you sit on it. The shape of the seat is also slightly diffrent, only very slightly. If you want the strap, why not just get the seat and take the strap off and staple it to the SV seat.
