Question about seat cowl...
Will probably get one of the HondaLine OEM seat cowls in the near future, the one with the screened vents on top, and was wondering how it's held in place? I keep hearing about washers or spacers to get the right gap between it and the body, but what holds it in place? Does it still slide in and latch like the seat does and is the lock mechanism retained?

RE: Question about seat cowl...
the base of it attaches just like the passenger seat
the actual painted, vented parts screws to the base. you put the washers between the base and the cowl to get the gap between the tail and cowl that you need and to level it off. the gap is there so vibration doesnt damage the paint go to www.hooliganbiketech.net in the 1000rr section there is a link to seat cowl fitting |

Like Baxsom said, the adjustment is easy. Just add or remove washers 'til the gap is the same everywhere. Just be careful to not overtighten the screws!

^^ yea, what they said. The concerns your reading about is from people (like myself) trying to get it dead on straight perfect. For the most part it just pops on and locks in place just like the seat.

RE: Question about seat cowl...
what do you guys think about having a different seat cowl color? i have the 07 cbr1000rr red/black. i'm thinking of getting the black seat cowl, just to make it look different than the rest of the red/black cbr.
i just need to know the rest of the guy's opinions. |
