THat does look good and cuts rego in QLD to $112 for six months . cheers

One thing that worries me is the height .It looks a lot higher than the pillion seat . Will a Ventura rack with the flat base faced foward have clearance ?
Or how does a Ventura bag go over the seat .?

Any idea on how much ? Embarassed Whatever it is it would pay for itself .And does it come in "pink " or cherry .My colour .

Yep, I like it!

Gus, I had a similar situation on the Gixxer. The ventura bag would sit on the seat cowl, so I endend up putting a strip of tape across the "contact area". This stopped any scuffing, and the bag didnt move as much due to the extra support. Probably get a measurement from Reardo of the rear seat pad to the top of the cowl, just to be on the safe side.

The suppliers quote from 07 on, can anyone tell me if there are any differences that would prevent the 07 cowl from fitting my 06.

I take it that the cowl replaces the rear pillion seat & fixes to the rear of the rider's seat & rear fixing points.

Reardo, any chance of photos of the underside of the cowl?

the 2006 body is the same as 2007 ( e.g. same screen etc ) so it should fit ( same seat as 2007 ) Smile

That shed is too clean Reardo... I'd be ashamed to take a photo of mine at the moment, there is crap everywhere.

I need to build a garden shed so I can get rid of all the mowers, chainsaws etc.

most auto stores, some hardware stores. I got mine from eBay. There just a all purpose "Paint Marker" pen. Used for metal work, rubber & glass etc, etc.
