Default f3 seat cowl??

Alright guys...don't bash too hard. I'm a new member and owner of a 1997 f3. I am planning on doing a few "mods" this winter to get ready for summer. Among these mods is a seat cowl from targa. I'm sure this has been covered on the forum before but I am having trouble finding it. Does anyone have pictures of their bike with one installed? Thanks in advance...for some odd reason I can not get the search button in the top right hand corner to work...anyways thanks in advance.

I know they are hard to find on ebay, that's for sure, but I think that's a sweet mod idea for sure.
I'd be interested in purchasing your old 97-98 seat if you do go through with it.

the cowl and the undertail are just like the California condor. extremely rare and hardly any pics going around.. both are also quite over priced (except the condor) which sucks

Here is a link to a pic of my bike with the targa one installed. No drilling required, it uses the leather seat strap to hold it firmly in place. It looks like the one you purchased will attach in the same manner. If you dont have a seat strap on your seat you can use a leather belt, cheapy one from the store etc and just drill some holes OR you can be ninja like and snag one of your girlfriends out of the closet, not that i did that or anything :P
