Seat gap...if you know what I mean

[ltdslipdiff]

OK, so there's an unsightly gap between my seat cushion and the fairing, it seems to have gotten more pronounced as time has moved on. With the addition of a seat hump it just looks silly and people stop,point and laugh, that could just be at me too I suppose. Nothing obvious is wrong, but now as the bike is partially stripped it would be a great time to rectify this....any ideas?

Ok, now to find a pre-stripped pic (of the bike ha ha)

Same problem with mine, have a motobattery which is taller than standard this touches the bottom of seat stopping it from fitting properly

Fit a rear seat hump



Without hump

You could try putting some spacers under the the rear of the tail fairing where the two mounting screws are. I think it would be simpler to adjust the fairing rather than the seat.

Nice clean looking Storm you have there.

Have a seat hump ! OK so I think the seat was popped in this one (and yes its a different colour)

I had this problem. I found that the rear fairing was sitting too low. The black plastic undertray flange sits under the fairing plastics. Then the fairing is then raised enough to meet the seat properly.

Like Carl said, you can put some plastic spacers between the fairing and the subframe under the 2 screws that are right at the back under the seat

That's a nice Yellow that, it has a hint of Red in it to warm it up. More like English than dijon.
