Title: 750 Monster Rear seat cowl
Post by: MissJJ on March 22, 2014, 12:41:18 PM
Hi! I'm looking for a rear seat cowl for my 750 monster (2002).
I wonder, do all seat cowls fit all models? or which ones can I fit on my bike?
Do any one know of a place where they don't cost a fortune. I am not in need of a carbon fiber, just a regular one...

As long as it's not for a new model (696, 796, 1100) they all fit.

You could buy this http://ricambiweiss.com/de/ducati/601-dr415-gfk-ducati-monster-sitzabdeckung.html (http://ricambiweiss.com/de/ducati/601-dr415-gfk-ducati-monster-sitzabdeckung.html)
, but it needs paint, seems to come without attachments for the brackets and also needs the thumb screws.

Have you tried ebay and the 'parts for sale' here?

Thank you!
I have tried ebay and searched here, but on ebay I only find carbon fibre cowls which I just don't have the extra money for. And on the trade forum here I didn't find any (trough a quick browse at least)
Any one have any idea what it would cost with original at my local ducati shop? (they are closed on weekends so I cant call them atm...)

You can look up the items and get a price online at Ducati Omaha...

I bought the one Stopintime linked on eBay for like $40 USD and it is nice. Fiberglass with a white gel coat, ready to paint. This was 4 years ago though...try searching DR415 Ducati seat cover.

Going to the 'parts for sale' section and filling in 'seat cowl' in the search window...

The brackets will usually be mounted on the cowl (ask to make sure anyway), but ask specifically if the thumb screws are supplied.

93-99 seat cowls were smaller top-to-bottom
00-08
newer one fit the older models, so an ebay one will likely be the slightly larger size that fits both

FYI- Ricambi-Weiss wont ship to the US
I tried to buy 20, pay with bank wire transfer, and have our DHL courier pick them up.
nope.
(actually maybe that looks too good and they thought i was a scammer  [laugh])
