    Default Where can I get a Mono seat cowl for RSS?

    I saw one on a Bike a while ago and haven’t been able to find one since. I have a 2010 rss with a passenger backrest but I usually ride single so I’d like to add a cowl to make it more like a one seater. I’ve seen it for rykers and F3s but not finding mulch for the RSS. Any help greatly appreciated.

    There are a couple on eBay, but the prices are insane. You may try posting on the "for sale by owner" forum, with the heading, "WTB(wanted to buy) GS/RS Seat Cowl", hopefully someone has one collecting dust that you can buy for a reasonable price. I was lucky, got mine cheap and I think it looks killer...best of luck. I will keep my eyes open..

    I had one on a 2009 RS. It was the BRP "official" version. It looked very nice. Functionally, not so good. The mickey mouse rubber straps to hold it in place rotted out and broke the first year. It was more for show than an actual back rest.

    If you can find one at this late date, I would not pay a lot of money for it. Bad farkle.

    Mine didn't have them. I just took some elastic cord, cut it shorter than the distance from side to side, and knotted the ends. Has held so far....
