New Carbon Fiber Seat Cowl.......pics

[xtremelow]

Well since I wasn't about to spend $600 ordering 2 seat cowls from ASB I figured I would try one of the MID ones off Ebay for $99 shipped to see how the fit and finish was before making the decision to order another or order one from ASB.

Well the fit and finish are great on a new seat although I did have to do some dremel work on the front arch to contour it to the seat. Otherwise pretty happy. But I tried it on my old Scg seat and my GF's Select Low seat and both look horrible, so I would recommend the ASB for older seat but I am happy as stated with the MID on my new seat.

Nice tail piece!

Wonder if it would fit the Ss?

 

[xtremelow]

I would guess NO, since the S has a slight arch to the side rails as the Ss has straight rails plus the seat is longer which I would assume would put the rides position in a different location which could hinder your abilities to sit correctly.

does anyone on here have one of these? Either ASB or Ebay????

 

[ADAMLEE]

just a thought, it looks like it should fit as long as they are the same width. I'm going to run down to Harley and measure the two, i really like the way your looks.

I think both Nomore4s and Lefox both have seat covers, I don't know if they're CF though

 

[xtremelow]

It might.

I think I will end up painting part of mine silver t flow with he bike a little better, just need to figure out what would look best.

is that the low seat you have? also how does it stay on. looks really good[up].

I have one from frank parts I believe, can't remember where I purchased it from. And it looks really similiar.

It slips onto the seat with the seat simi off. No screws or cutting involved. A nice flush fit. And I have a low seat on my XB9SX

 

[xtremelow]

Just slips on but I drilled a small hole in the rear under neither and put in a small screw. I asked ASB how they mounted theirs and that is what they recommend I do.

I have the ebay one on mine...with the standard seat on my xb12s...so fitment issues. At times it is a bit difficult to latch the seat after it has been taken off. But its a non-issue.

 

[xtremelow]

ended up removing mine, just decided. Didn't care for the look after a while.

I did hav to adjust te latch so it would lock but otgrwise fitment was pretty good.




For sale now, I payed $100 shipped and would be willing to drop the price to $75 shipped if someone wants it otherwise I will just throw t back up on eBay.
