Cant stand my ugly seat :(

[NJ Monster]

I own a 02' monster 750 ie dark, and I cant stand the super ugly 2 person seat, and it has a rip in it too! Everytime I search for ducati parts I never know what fits and what does not. Everything seems to be "check with your dealer before purchasing" which is a huge pain. Where can I get a nice 2 OR 1 person seat? I was even thinking of hacking it in half and trying to re-wrap it myself. Please send me links to stuff that will fit!!!

It looks like this, FUGLY!

have you thought about recovering the seat? try luimoto they have some nice covers

try it w/0 that front fairing. its not that bad...there is always a tail chop and a dark seat cowl (WANT!)

is there a cheap seat cowl that will fit? I am looking for something cheap, i dont care if it is used or unpainted... I have a little custom job i'd like to do to it!

I like my HT Moto cover.  Affordable and high customizable.

I really like the seemingly rare solo seat too.  If I could find one that wasn't so expensive, I'd get one.

A used Sargent may be the way to go. The quality is awesome, and it looks killer with the italian flag sewn on the right side.  It also has a tube on the bottom to hold documents, sunglasses etc..

I'm pretty sure monster parts.com sells unpainted cowls on the cheap

I bought an aftermarket seat cowl off eBay in January for $80.  Good quality fiberglass/gel coat, made in Czeck republic.  Bought the mounting tabs from Monsterparts.  Didnt fit as well as OEM, but it looks the part.

I think the seller was Moto Italia?

corbin is a great seat as well.
couldnt decide between sargent and corbin, went with corbin. love it

the only solution for me? get a s*r with a sargent and have the best of both worlds

You can find auto upholstery shop to recover it. While the cover is off, you can get them to cut the foam so the seat is one continuous flat seat. Then they stitch along the edge. Looks pretty good and is usually $50~80.

will the rear cowl still fit if you do this?  i'm guessing not but . . .

Just to bring this back up & help a little. Ht Moto makes pretty nice stuff, I had them make a custom seat cover for my Ruckus that I love, they also make covers & gel inserts for the last gen Duc's. They'll make current gen, or custom stuff if you send in your seat to build the template from. Might be worth checking out, they have good prices too.

As a side note, I have zero affiliation with them, just trying to help some if I can

interesting .... any other FHE?

I'd love to get a seat built up, that had a little width ala the 848 / 1098.
I've got a spare OEM seat / tray.

I will be offering a solo seat soon.  Check my thread for preliminary pics.  Shouldn't be too far down the page.
