| I am in a position where I don't ever have anyone riding the SW with me. I have registered my SW as a single seater, which is less than half the registration cost in Queensland, Australia. I often look at the seat and think: This space behind me could be more useful and I could afford one good comfortable customized seat and do something innovative with the extra space.
Has anyone actually had a go at this and if so i would love to see their solution. |

| Hey Gremlin, What about taking a leaf out of the 4x4 customisation handbook and fit out the extra space with a 12v cooler (something like a small Waeko/Engel/Evakool unit) to keep that XXXX cold! Better still stock it with VB!! Imagine the nice big backrest you could fit up against it. |

| PeterC; you wouldn't catch me ever loading VB into my cooler; my Givi Box does not fit enough painkillers to treat the inevitable hangover. If I could solidify that sordid Victorian brew and feed it to the rats I would me more successful than the Piper of Hamelin |

| I have felt the same way Gremlin. I have often looked at the seat and tried to visualise how it could be adapted. I have made the backrest brackets but, maybe someone can come up with a solution |
