German Seat Cowl

Post by benjy_b »

Hey Guys,

I am wondering if anyone has any experience with this German company and their seat cowl?

I love the look but it looks like you need to modd the subframe yourself, It looks like the early r1 tail, i was going to try and do an r1 tail with a tyga front fairing but aparently you need a tyga subframe as it tilts the tank forward so the tank fits the fairing, so id have to make a subframe out of the r1 and tyga frame, btu now i think il wait until tyga bring out their 2 seater tail

Michael Austermann's kit is superb. A few guys on here have used hiom for bespoke carbon bits etc.

You need to mod the subframe it seems for that tail...
