    That's why you always put it out there and ask. Did the same on a 8 spoke VFR wheel a while back (on the Hawk forum) and got lucky!

    sixdog, I don't think there's anybody that would more appreciate this right now than smitty.

    Squirrelman had a good idea to get someone with a 3D printer to copy one and then sell the copies

    I’d be up for one

    He does have a great idea but I'll have to let him pilot that ship. I just want to place that emblem on top my girl again....sit back and smile.

    I eliminated the side tabs on the VF1000Rs. They want to jump out and then rub on the outside of the cowl. Buh-bye.

    I remember the tabs popping out now, on track days. I'll see how she fits when I get it home. If the fit was so rude looking, I would be inclined to find another seat and do your trim job instead. Thats shit's flippin masterful Dude!

    Having extra seats and the ability to save the original gives me some freedom to experiment.

    I guess. The VF1000R seat cowl fits really good compared to the RC24/26, but it still found a way to bounce out.

    That was a tense few moments with my dremel in my hand before I just said "fuck it". Hard to start grinding on perfect seat cowl, but harder to see the tab out and starting to scratch the rear fairing.

    But as for my seat cowl I'll be considering usage factor, I don't think the bike will have any milage with the cowl in place. I won't have to trim the tab.
