If you get a chance, maybe try & take some pictures of it prior to installation. I'm sure there's a few of us curious as to the quality and construction of these exhausts. I'm interested to know how it runs afterwards too. But definitely post some pics of your bike.

makes them, and you could try eBay for either a replacement seat cover, or a cowl.

Here is a link to a write up I did when I recovered my rear seat to match the bike.

Hey, I was just busting your chops bro. I wouldn't pay $200 for a cowl either; it's just cosmetic, imo. Rather spend that on a pair of Sidi boots. You could get marine grade vinyl & make your own cover. I did a weight bench that way, with finishing nails. But it won't come out anywhere as nice as it did in that write-up, unless you have a sewing machine. Nice job on that BTW. That should be a sticky.
