My SD-R is a '09 model, it comes standard with the single seat. The Dual seat kit or the Single seat kit should cost you in the region of U$1,000. Look out on eBay for loose parts and refer to KTM Parts Finder to make sure that your kit is complete with all necessary parts.

Only 11 posts but already a great one - well done Marco.

Candidate for epic posts.

Actually, when I look at it very professional - very nice lighting and photography

I will have to say this is a very nice "how to do it". It's great to see someone raising the bar. It will not be beat for some time on this site.....unless maybe Pete gets another project.

Thanks for the class act.

Good Job!

I'm currently looking at trying to do this conversion without changing the underseat tray, just using the 'R' tray for both the single and dual seat. Also looking into the option of putting rivnuts in the dual seat base to attach the side plastics directly to the seat to speed the swap process.

Will let you know how I get on...!

Don't hold your breath for a back up of the pic's.
Was a good how to tho, one of the best on this site, but you can get thru it with out, if you have the kit to do it with.
I bought the KTM kit and installed it on my bike.
E-Z-P-Z.
A gazillion parts ....
Luck had it I had the full un-used kit, with instructions.
No reason to sweat about the pics, if you don't have the kit in hand.
Not a rocket science install.
