996 Race Seat

Discussion in '748 / 916 / 996 / 998' started by cookster, Sep 4, 2017.

  1. "lots of good info there, I use a glassfibre seat from Sebimoto with the self made backet bonded into the inside.
    what are the options for the internal frame (Carbon etc) I find my rear seat becomes unlatched on track quite often and I would like to go the other way and use the Duz fasteners, any pointers to where I can get the bracket would be welcome.."

    The two most used options tend to be as per the photos. The more rounded one was found on bikes like the 748RS and the squarer one came from a bike equipped with the P8 ECU.

    Both require an alloy subframe if you want to use them unless you can modify a steel one.

    As mentioned I did make a single Dzus fixing for a steel subframe for use on a race bike once and it worked perfectly well and did not come loose. It also helps that you can tape the Dzus fastener in place for extra security.

    As for availability they are extremely rare now, the last person I knew that had one in stock was in Australia, they were Gowanloch and had a couple in stock which had come directly from Ducati.

    I do have a spare square one that was modified for a race bike by LouigiMoto that I would probably part with, this is the square type as per the P8 ECU subframe bikes. You will need a P8 subframe though if you were interested in purchase.
