I want to put an XB12R tail section on an XB12S.}}} What do the parts cost and are there major problems with the swap?

For starters, I am not at work so this is by memory.
Subframe 486.00
Rear plastic 140.00
Seat cowl 40.00
Riders seat?
Pass seat?

I think it totals about 700.00 and change with the Badweb discount.
If you are interested I can figure it up for you tomorrow.

Don't forget the battery tray, the brake reservoir, the lock cable, and the body grommets too! ; )

Once I get my total invoice from DaveS and I'm sure I have everything I'll need to finish the job, I'll post a comprehensive parts list with all part numbers required to fully convert the S to an R.

That would be great,Dago.
How many hours do you think you spent doing the job?

Let's see...

About 3 hours so far on the phone with DaveS.

Another 2 un-boxing and looking at all the goodies.

And I'd say about 12 hours so far actually wrenching on the bike. Of those 12 hours wrenching, about 9 of them were spent looking at what I did.

It's a labor of love. The hard part is waiting on the parts.

Dago, keep this string going and post some pics and the parts list when you get a chance. As soon as I get my back from Korea I am going to do the same to my 12S. I am also interested to see if anyone knows where to get a 12R carbon fiber solo seat in the US. ie Other than from Trojan Horse in the UK.
