Seat cowl (or seat)

Hi
was enjoying a fantastic spin in this morning, the sun was out and not much traffic on the road.
Then I felt something tip my hip, for some reason I put my hand back to check the cowl and yes....you guessed it, gone! I turned around found it on the middle of the road but just before I got to it a big effin truck rolled over it and made bits of it :-(
So anyone have a red\black cowl? if not, a seat would do for now either.

Cheers
P.

Nope, puncture repair kit, tool kit and power commander.
I picked up a seat on ebay, so that will do for now.

There is a cowl on eBay at the moment but they do certainly tend to fetch a high price.

I was a bit luckier than you when mine did the same. It still cartwheels down the road but I managed to get to it befor it got flattened. Nearly got flattened myself trying to get to it but we both survived to tell the tale :doh:
Good luck on the hunt fo a new one.
