Solo seat cowl rubber trim & butt pad needed

#1 Post by kpke » Fri Feb 03, 2023 9:24 am

Does anyone have a recommendation for the trim seen on the back of the left part in the photo?

Also looking for a butt pad for these things. I searched the web. cruznimage on ebay use to sell them but not finding anything.

Thank you.

The trim is the same as the normal tail, it comes in a longer length now as a generic part.

Yes CI no longer sell the pads sadly, they were really good value. They also used to sell the brackets... I assume you have those Ken?

Thanks George. Currently I am not in the market for another solo seat cowl. Maybe someone else here would be interested in that. I wonder how much shipping is?

Hi JonW. Yes, I have the brackets.


I just ordered this for the tailpiece because it's somewhat hidden. I wouldn't use it on a windshield/front nose fairing. I don't know if it will work but I can return it if it doesn't. (Evans says it won't work :smt010 )

is light so shipping say around $100.00. The other option is get a passport and go to Japan on vacation with an empty suitcase

Thank you George and Jon. I wonder how long the material is from Yamaha. How much does it cover?

Still looking for a butt pad or two. I have emailed cruizinimage through their website but have low expectations.

The Amazon stuff worked for this application. I cut it a teeny bit short on the right but it is hidden.

Ken- if nothing else pans out, I have one that I made that is decent that needs recovering and I have saved an original used seat cover to use with it. I can cut material for it. Yours free if needed.

Brother Evans, if Ken passes on your offer, I'd be interested. I have no pad :(
