Hey guys :)
as we speak yesterday i make some caps or replacement to cover the screw point if cowl are not use on the Monster 696/1100
i made some tests with the lowest high and for me looks cool
but im not sure if you prefere a "cap" or a full replacement for this ... "cap" are easy to mount all times ... "replacement" are not so easy and with a little risc of brocken plastic hooks
what do you think about the cap version ?

THANKS FOR YOUR FEEDBACK [thumbsup]
Chris
Those are really nice. I'm not a fan of having the original hardware on my seat, since it sticks out, but I also do not like the look of nothing there. How much you thinking to charge for this?
hey chisel
so you prefere a full replacement not a cap ?
price ... hmm have to see at the end , but about 13-18 Euro for a set
caps near 13 Euro ... replacement near 18 Euro
Chris
Neat [thumbsup] I vote just the cap..... in gold ;D
Chris,
this looks like you dont need the little plastic washers that come with the bike for when the seat cover is offer... nice i hate those. the dealer who delivered my bike thought they were washers for the mirrors [bang]
so are they going to be 13 euro any color?
I can't say for sure until you send me one of each in red to try out. PM me for my address, I'll even pay shipping [laugh]

Will these work with the seat cowl installed as well?
Ciao,
no ... this are specialy made for "no cowl"
but i've made allready a replacement for the original Screw , so if you have the cowl on the bike you need this

Not that I have a 696/796/1100, but
A piece designed to work with both the cowl on and off could be possible.
example:
Cap and adaptor piece for when the cowl is being used, and just the Cap when the cowl is not being used.
Does that make sense? Pretty much it would be the "no cowl cap", and an adaptor with the back side like the "cowl cap".
Makes no sense... diameter for use inside the cowl are a lot smaler than a good looking diameter to use without the cowl. Ducati give an Adapter inside the box, so its possible to use the cowl Version without the cowl... but Looks not good enough for me :-)
Makes sense. [thumbsup]
I can sell these to the car world very easily.....If you want a new market drop me a pm.. I can move a lot!

yeah that adapter is just a black plastic washer that is the same thickness as the seat cover. if you don't use it, there is a gap between the bolt and seat.
I understand what you are saying Chris, plus it's good for you. now someone has to buy 2 sets from you to maintain the look with or without the cowl ;)

hey Raux, trust me ... if theres a good solution to have only 1 cap for both situations i made this one not two :D
but i decided to offer a double set on special price ... safe money because lasered ergal screws needed only one times + little set-discount ;D
for price infos please check our Sponsor section, i will post it there
Thanks
Chris
I can't find anything on your site :P
I would like to place an order for a set of these for use WITH the seat cowl

hey man ... thanks !!!!!! [thumbsup]
on S4Rs theres not so much special parts needed ... standard frame plugs like the picture before works fine, tail chop plugs like this can use also
(http://www.desmorados.com/shop/catalog/images/RS.00.00660.jpg)
of corse same as handle bar caps like this
(http://www.desmorados.com/shop/catalog/images/LG.00.0008T_1.jpg)
if you miss any "special S4Rs parts" let me know
Chris
