I couldn't find much about the available carbon seat cowl pads, so figure I'll put up what I have found.
My pad didn't fall off like others have had, mine cracked and judging by the way it crumbled when I took it off, wasn't going to last long.
I bought the Moto Composites "seat cover cowl" for USD$64.99. shipping to Aus was an extra $12.
This appears to be a cover for the original pad, but as mine was failing, I removed it. This requires packing if about 8mm to get it to fit correctly. The finish looks good, but doesn't match the matte finish of the termi heat shield or DP fender eliminator which has a little more "gloss."
Packing is really important as it does flex on the packing and fits close to the tail fairing, so could mark it when refitting the seat cowl. The top area is rounded more than the OEM pad so there is a slight gap between the carbon and the pad recess. It's not awful, but it would be better if a little more squared off.
Overall I'm happy with the fit and quality. Moto Comp6seem to get a range of comments regarding quality and fit, but in this case, no complaints.
After taking off the remains of the original pad I found the part number: 59511212A which appears as an available part, but only when searching part numbers for the 2014 1199S Senna, which explains why I couldn't find it prior to going carbon.
