Rear seat cowl for 04 F4I?

Flyf4i · 03-15-2005, 01:05 PM

Anybody make one for the one piece 04 seat? Didn't think there was such a thing but my buddy just bought a VFR with the one piece seat and it came with one. Anybody know where to get one?

Cool, anybody got one of these? Just wondering how it mounts and if you have to take the grab handle off to make it work?

I haven't seen one in person, so I don't know about the retention mechanism.
It should just clamp to the seat so that when you remove the seat, the cowl stays attached on the seat.
There are a couple of guys over on cbrworld.net that have this cowl. It really looks good on the bike. They had to remove the grab handle to put the cowl on.

I just ordered a PowerBronze Rear Cowl. This is the cleanest one I've seen yet.

I ordrered it from Superbike Store LLC. They had it on back order and are expecting that they should recieve and ship it out next week. It was about $100 shipped.

Here are a few pics of it off Cbrworld.net. I exchanged emails with Mark (owner of the bike) and he stated that it was very easy to clip on and clip off. Also, that this was a very easy to install.

Hmm that one is pretty sweet too, I kinda like the way the Targa smooths everything out, but not sure about ditching the grab bar, although the only person who rides with me is my wife and she isn't holding the bar anyway! Have to think about that one!

When I get it in I'll post on it. I like the targa too but for $100 more + cost if you want to fill holes in tail, no spanx.

Grab bar doesn't look too bad... just think spoiler!
