R46Paul Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 Hi all, Im new around here, but thought i would join up and say hi! I have just bought an 05 R46, that my friend has owned since new..and i love it. The bike has just gone into my local Yamaha dealer for a full service, and they mentioned that it should have a rear seat cowl with it, with Rossi's signature on it..Is this correct? If anyone can shed any light on this, that would be great... Here's my new toy:)
Yammy dodger Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 to the forum R46Paul. Great looking bike you have there mate.

At the place i work we have recently had two of these gone through our shop and neither of them have had the mentioned seat cowl! I will how ever make a phone call for you about that on monday.
Madison Motorsport Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 The autographed seat cowl was a £400 optional extra
R46Paul Posted March 8, 2009 Author Posted March 8, 2009 Thanks for your help guys..At £400 that would probably explain why i havent seen an R46 with a seat cowl!

If anyone can shed any light on this, that would be great... Here's my new toy:) Hello mate, I owned one of these too - mine was from new and never had a cowl, just the normal seat. Sounds like the dealer may have a cowl that may just fit in stock!!! Enjoy the bike, I recall it was great fun, extending to a magnet for the old bill which is why I sold mine

John P Posted March 21, 2009 Posted March 21, 2009 Hi R46Paul, I got mine brand new in April 2007 so it came on an 07 plate from a dealer in Redcar. I see yours has the Termignoni Exhaust fitted, I haven't got round to fitting mine yet (The bike comes fitted with a brushed finished standard can and the Termignoni in a box). The seat cowl isn't part of the package; however your local Yamaha dealer should be able to order you one, the details are: - Extreme Yellow / Midnight Black (RYC1/SMX) Part Number 5SL-W0771-60-00 Price £142.99 It isn't autographed though and I've never actually seen an autographed one. Could I ask you a big favour, one of the reasons that I've never got round to fitting the Termignoni Exhaust is that the fitting instructions are pretty poor and you cannot see from the pictures how the strap fits to the pillion footpeg hanger. Could you take a couple of digital photos of yours and e-mail them to me please. Many thanks and enjoy your R46. John

John I will take some pics of how the silencer is fitted to the rear hanger as soon as i dig out my camera..il il try and get it done within the next couple of days for you. Thanks for the info on the seat cowl!

Thanks for the info on the seat cowl! Thanks very much for that Paul, I've been out on mine this weekend; they are great fun. No worries about the seat cowl info, I also purchased the R46 Paddock Stand as it comes with the bobbins as part of the kit. If you get the seat cowl and you have an alarm fitted dont forget to check if your alarm has a switch on the pillion seat as mine has; I had to get an additional contact to fit on the seat cowl.
kaserne Posted September 8, 2010 Posted September 8, 2010 Hi there, also new here as had a 07 R46 for 2 weeks now. Enquired this weekend at george whites in swindon about a rear seat cowl and they are 145 pounds from yamaha. part number 5sL W077160000 Hope this helps! I am currently looking for one cheaper than that as price is quite high compared with single coloured ones! Dave
