I've got a Bi-posto subframe from a 2000 748 in mint condition that I would like to trade for a Mono subframe. If anyone is interested, lemme know!

Thanks!

Can I run a mono subframe with a biposto seat? Will it hold the weight?

Holiday, I apologize. My post was in bad form. Thank you for bringing that fact to my attention.

In regards to a 749/999 (don't know about the others)...

The weight of the seat? Sure

The weight of a person on the seat.... nope.

Plus, mono subframe has no attachment for passenger pegs, and is a lot shorter. The Bi subframe is so long it sticks out from under the mono tail. The Bi tail needs to attach right behind the seat to the Bi subframe - the mono subframe does not have these attachment points as it is much shorter.

I could take pictures and post iffin you want.

I just got a mono tail on ebay and found it won't fit on my Bi subframe without cutting the subframe. So I'm getting a mono subframe and keeping both so I can switch from mono to bi as my needs / mood dictates.....

Trevor- My 748 monoposto, as well as many other mono's, came with a biposto subframe. Don't know why you had trouble fitting your mono tail on a bi-posto subframe- was it a stock tail that you bought, or an aftermarket?

Ian- No prob.

Marco- I'm going to take the subframe off tommorow (Sat.), so please let me know. I'll throw in some cash too to sweeten the deal.

I might be wrong, I may already have a biposto subframe

It seems like I may have a biposto sub frame as well (just like you described yours) I looked at it and it has the holes for the passanger pegs. Does that mean I have the biposto subframe already?
Please advise?

Mine looks just like this:

Biposto subframe = steel+mounts for passenger pegs, mono = Al, no pass. mounts.

also has different plate for seat latch (surprisingly only $11), spaders, screws.

going from bi to mono requires new mounting of ECU (cable length different), this took me a while to figure out how to cleanly mount and get to fit, inner fender different (different mount points), tool tray not the same.

I know as I converted '00 996 to mono

Marco- you're in the same boat; Monoposto bike with a biposto subframe.

Looks like I'm going to buy a mono subframe instead. Anyone want to buy a Biposto subframe in great condition?
