    Hi

    Sorry - it was hard for me to come up with a meaningful headline..

    I have a 1991 RC36 and the sub-mid-cowl - or whatever that is called - is broken and something is even missing.
    When I search on eBay, it's very easy to find a cowl for the 1994-model, but impossible to find one for my 1991-model.

    The question comes now: Is the 1994-cowl compatible with my 1991-cowl?

    All the best
    Dan

    Yeah, really dont think so. Pretty sure where it engages the mid and lower cowls is different. I'll be able to show for sure later as I'm workimg on my 95 and 92 at the same time this winter.

    The same piece on my 92 is broken (but repairable) and I've been keeping an eye open. I noticed the same thing about the availability of that piece too.

    Been looking for 6 years now......Never seen a complete one for sale. Finally found one. Had to buy the whole bike to get it. LOL

    3rd gen body parts are very hard to find these days. Sidestand cover and solo seat cowl are also very rare. Sometimes you just need to be lucky.

    There is always a "wise-guy" in the crowd

    I have two of these bikes, the second one I got had a broken inner cowl (what-ever-you-call-it) I ended up getting a granite blue one to go on my pearl white bike. Looks like factory and makes it that much nicer. 94 is not compatible with gen3 bikes btw, tail lights and rear turn signals are though.
