Hi pip, you may find one on ebay, ill have a scour through my photos so might have one, ive even got a feeling ive got one as i never put mine back on when i fitted my Sp seat unit. Ive also got a feeling the SP models may not have the same rear subframe as the non SP models so may not have provision for a passenger seat and lock. Have you got any photos of the seat unit off? If so if you have a pic of the left hands side of the subframe that would be even better.

Does your seat unit have a bum pad that comes off with a key?

That was a quick reply!! thanks..

um iv fited the fairing on today, i think its the right subframe as its got 2 fixing points for a catch and the seat stays in place with 2 small pin things, it just dosnt stay there coz the catch..

i looked on ebay, but theres nothing on there..

yer the unit has the pad with the key

whats on the left hand side.. i hav no pics..

thanks for the help

hi thanks for the pic, im missing the catch and the hinge bit..
my subframe looks the same and has all the same fixings..

how does the catch work on the SP models? i'm assuming you don't have a key as per normal models or is it positioned different behind the bum pad?

The SP models dont have one, since they dont have a passenger seat.

What the SP model has; if you have a proper one, is a bum pad that has a lock and key.

ahhhh reread the post he's fitting a std seat unit to SP subframe. gotcha!
