Want to change the look of your XB9 or 12R? How about one of these stunning new seat and airbox pieces in glass-fibre to give your scoot the ultimate Streetfighter look: )
We have both available to order now from our site as usual

That looks pretty damn cool, do you look the little space in the back. Looks like you loose it.

You'd lose the underseat storage I'm afraid, unless you wanted to unbolt the whole seat unit every time you wanted to access it of course...

Being no holes on the side of the tail, does that affect cooling any?

Other than that she looks sweet!!

Neat. Too bad my wife likes to go for rides on occassion, so I need that back seat. Guessing that wouldn't be really comfortable for long trips either. Like the airbox.

That airbox is cool. I assume it will fit on a 9S? Any pix of that? I assume it is paintable?

Cost?

Brucelee, looks to me like you'd have to get the XBR subframe.

How much for just the airbox cover, that is very nice? I have my own ideas for the tail that is less kicked up.

Airbox cover to the US would be approx US$410 unpainted plus shipping.

Yep, I'd like to ride on that seat for about 400 miles?

$410???

Didn't you have a CF one that was the same shape (or very similar) for that price?

We did have a CF one very similar at a similar price for a while, but the manufacturer of the item put the price right up to where it just wasn't viable on it's own. We still do it as part of an induction kit though.

Damn... I really want one of those hoods, but I can't afford it. I spent less than that on my Force pipe.

I know I have a bit too much padding on my a$$, but c'mon - that's just ridiculous! My butt aches just thinking about my usual jaunts of 200 - 300 miles on that seat. Does it come with some icyhot for relief after a ride?

200 miles on my s1 even with a corbin and I feel like i jumped off a diving board and landed on a rope - I don't want to imagine what that thing feels like.

What kind of exhaust is that on the first pic? I like the dual can exhaust, but I want polished instead of the black D&D. I can't make out the brand, and I've never scene one like that. Anyone know? Thanks

That exhaust is indeed a Sebring Twister - twin stainless mufflers all welded and with removal baffles if the need for noise overcomes you: )

As far as the uncomfortable seat goes, there is also a deluxe seat pad available to fit just in case the old 'Farmer Giles' are playing up.

See my previous posts on fitting this exhaust and then tuning it with and without baffles fitted. It's a good looking and quality exhaust but damn, it's expensive and difficult to set up - a TFI will not help as it runs both lean and rich depending on the rev range and whether or not the baffles are fitted. It's also VERY LOUD without the baffles
