Default Seat Cowl

So I was talking with a few buddies and they mentioned that Some bikes have a seat Cowl Included in the sale of the bike...Has anyone heard of this?? I know my buddies girl got her new 08 Gixxxer And they included the Seat cowl, Is it a Suzuki thing?? I tried looking for it for my 6R but couldn't find anything.

Would be sweet to go back to the dealer and get one for free.

Buell does. And I know Suzuki does. Don't know that any of the others do.

This is the truth. I think none others do.

I like that too, keeps people from asking for a ride, as well as looking cleaner.

And Buell has the benifit of the cowl being a cover only. In emergency situations you still have the seat.
Though I think I'm going to pull the pass pegs, so they would be SOL anyway.

My pegs would be off if my wife didn't ride with me. Much cleaner looking without them.

That's the first thing I did. Then I put em back on once to give a ride to the gf. And that was the last time my bike will ever see 2 up. It's just too small...

The RC might of been one that came with a cowl.

Ducati Monster was another one that came with the cowl and it is the same as the buell, it's just a cover.

Some other high end italian bikes also come with it. Some because they are only single seat bikes.
