Anybody got one? The girlfriend wants to ride along and she complains that the plastic rear cowl doesn't have enough cushioning. . . . . I've been telling her to quit whining but she's running out of patience!

Cant you just get existing seat modified. I had mine modded by Viking near Brands Hatch for my wife done a fantastic job, Recovered in matching non slip vinal padded out with Memory foam and added Gel for £75. Wife loves it and looks great.
No, the underside for the US model is completely different than the underside for the European naked model. The US model is much larger.
A guy in the UK responded and said he is going to hit up a Yamaha dealer out there and let me know the cost of a new one. I found one on ebay in the UK but two emails to the guy and I didn't get a response. . .
I'll be speaking to my Yamaha dealer tomorrow about a couple of things so I'll get you a price for the seat and shipping at the same time. Is there anything else you'll need for the 'n' model?
There's a seat here on Ebay:
YAMAHA FZ1 1000 FAZER 2D1 REAR SEAT on eBay (end time 12-Jun-10 20:46:37 BST)
It's for the 'n' model but used rather than brand new and it's up for £55. If you were interested, I could get this one and ship it over to you and it would work out to be quite a bit cheaper.
I'll get an accurate price for shipping and get back to you with the full cost for it :tup:
Sorry to see this so late Ducguy. I can source new parts here in Japan.
Guys, if you can't find it PM me. Partshark.com usually has stuff cheaper than I can get it but some things they can't get are too damn expensive. Some aren't.
A new in the bag with hardware FZ1N seat is 9,272yen = @$100US. Throw another $25 in postage and it should cover all.
I'm also interested in trades for stuff I can't get here.
