Default F3 seat strap?

Well i picked up a targa cowl and it attaches to the seat using the leather strap on our seats but my bike seat doesnt have a strap! Anyone able to explain where that strap bolts on under the seat? Maybe a picture?

Thanks,

Blake

i dont think the F3 had the seat strap as it has a one piece seat.

Thanks for the reply guys, im pretty sure ive seen them with and without. I can just use a nylon strap or old belt and bolt it to the bottom of the seat to hold the targa cowl on, was just hoping someone had some pics.

Ty for that pic andy, any idea how it attaches on yoru bike? Im thinkin it just wraps around and bolts on.

Thats why mine doesnt have the strap it is the Uk/Eu model and has the grab rail at the back. Makes sense when i think about it. I have never seen them with the strap so i thought all were the same, but there were small differences.
