    15-20 Yamaha R1 Superstock Tail Advice

    Does anyone out there know whether anyone makes a superstock tail and by that I mean one where you can use the stock seat? Really want to use the stock seat because I'm so tall and I can get it raised. Seat foam just isn't available thick enough and doing the job. The usual suspects Armor bodies and hotbodies don't. I could try modifying one by cutting out space for the seat but if I make an arse of it, I've just wasted a perfectly good rear fairing.

    SharkSkinz are, IMO, the best bodywork on the market. Fit and finish is top notch and they withstand crashing better than anything else I’ve had.
