accessories » Seat cowl search

I’m looking to replace my rear passenger seat with a cowl. I’ve looked at the Corbin Smuggler but the US$1,000 made it an easy “no” in my books.

Has anyone found or seen a (preferably) prepainted Seat cowl for the 1250?

Sargent makes one.

I like the basic look.

I did once try an expensive hump, but sent it back for a refund because it wouldn’t sit comfortably on the bike.

And it was very small.

And it was very expensive.

Here is a simple idea I used to gain some storage and get the shape of a seat cowl.

Thanks everyone, I ordered an unpainted Sargent seat pod. $275US delivered since it’s sale time with them.

I’ll shoot it with a 2K spray bomb in black. In case this is an unfamiliar product, I heartily endorse them. They are a spray bomb with a capsule inside you break, resulting in a two part paint mix. I refinished the carbon fiber on an RSV1000 Factory and it came out with a flawed, mirror finish.

I purchased a used, OEM, rear seat and shaved the foam down substantially. I had a local upholsterer cover the seats in Ultra Suede, and after removing the straps from the new Held seat bag, he actually sewed the bottom of the bag to the top of the seat cover to clean up the final look. I kept my OEM rear seat to carry a passenger.

but where are the mounting straps on yours.

I removed the straps and had the upholsterer sew the bottom of the Held bag directly to the top of my spare pillion seat.
