Hi fellow Ducites. Having recently purchased a 748 with a boxed and unused genuine Monoposto unit I made some enquiries on this forum in relation to fitting it. I had numerous replies assisting me and personal e-mails from RED998 for which I'm grateful but it does seem a lot of work and I still have to buy a Mono seat at around £100. Therefore I'm exploring the possibility of just getting a 748 seat cowl to replace the passenger seat on my Biposto seat up. The only one I've found is made by Ricambi-Weiss from Germany.

Don't have one but seen them. Look a bit odd in my opinion as you still have the low back Bip seat. Its worth looking out for a genuine Mono seat if you are patient...
I have a mould for the genuine Ducati Performance item and I used to produce them at one time and even sold a few to the old Ducatisti site members. They are nowhere near as good looking as a mono seat but they do give a kind of mono look. I can send you a photo of one if you want to see what it looks like, I still have one or two left I think, certainly one of them has been painted but not lacquered. They originally cost £127 and if you see a genuine one it is not worth the money they are made of a flimsy composite fibreglass that would be wrecked quite easily in an accident, mine at least are stronger than that and follow exactly the shape of the old one.
