Im thinking of getting one of these for mine soon. Are they the same height as the seat, or are you able to cram a bit more stuff in than you are with the passenger seat pad?
Mies a bit cramped at the mo, with the pclll and alarm:D
hahaha , How did you manage to fit that much in .
Its a strugle for me with the PC , tools, and a Tire pressure Guage:lol
I have not seen these hump saet cowls, have you got a pic of 1 ?

Er.... "seat hump"?
By chance, are you referring to the solo seat cowl?

I gave up on the trunk space and just use a backpack where ever I go. :D

Thats the one :)
Well.... I had to pick one up, since I yanked the passenger pegs off the first day anyway (my bride already informed me she absolutely prefers the FJR for touring, and she's never going to be on it). Neither will any of the children, so.... :lol
Pics are a little overexposed in the harsh desert sun, but here's a couple shots:

Look how smoothly the solo cowl bodywork integrates with the rest of the tail section.... pretty scha-weeeeet! :thumbup

A shop in Brazil makes them. I emailed Romes at artfibras@artfibras.com.br to let him know I was interested and then I paypal'd him - I had my cowl 12 days later...
Seat Cowl in color $85
Unpainted $70
Shipping $15
payment with Paypal or Credit Card
His paypal account is artfibras@artfibras.com.br
good luck. its worth it. the fit isn't as snug as i would like... but the looks make up for it. ozy, you're just jealous.
:confused:

+1 I prefer my Yammie one with the little pad on.
Props for being different though :)
