Carbon seat cowl onto Corbin

Hello All,
I was gifted a carbon fiber seat cowl for the R11s and it just does not fit onto my Corbin seat very well. So, it is just sitting gathering dust. I am not sure what brand the cowl is. I will try to get pics at some point, but was wondering if others have a seat cowl on a Corbin and what that looks like.
I will get pics when I can.
Thanks and


Sean

Hello Sean. Not certain of the cowl you have nor of any cowl which will suit an aftermarket seat though a number of folks have fitted a Sargent (my experience was less than satisfactory) and used the OEM cowl.


If you happen to have an OEM carbon cowl these are quite rare and do not come up for sale very often.


Looking forward to pics.

I have my stock seat cowl on my Corbin seat. Has to sit back slightly to match the screw holes but no issue.
Main thing is the shiny Crome fasteners that come with the Corbin seat like to wiggle loose if I don’t tighten. Damn things are more than 30 dollars each to replace. Unbelievable.
I found some replacement things online for 9 bucks each.
