Not sure if all are aware of this but Queensland Transport allows you modify motorbikes from two seaters to single seat by self assessment.  The basic requirements are to remove the rear pegs and "modify" the seat.  There is no need to have the bike inspected.  

As my 75S rego was due I filled in the form, took it in and paid.  The follow up paperwork arrived a week or so later.  So instead of paying $480 for a years rego, I now pay $300.  

The form is the Change of Vehicle Particulars Form and it is available on their website.  

Simplez.  More beer/petrol money.  

Dave! Have you cafe'd your 75s and didn't tell us?  Unless you've actually made the changes, you run a very real risk of invalidating your CTP personal injury insurance in the event of a claim. That could be costly mate.

they also made a couple of changes 1/ before you not only had to remove rear pegs but you also had to fill the bolt holes with metal ... now you only have to remove pegs ...2 / to shorten seat before you could put a shrould over rear of seat .. now your cant , you have to shorten seat or make unuseable . what iv done with 2 of my bikes is turn the pillion section into a kind of bum bag (upholster took the rear form out and put in a zipper so now have a handy place to put tools etc plus if need to carry a pillion they can have a rough ride

 sitting there or put a towel etc in pouch for some comfort , well worth the change over.. almost 1/2 price for rego or same as club rego but without the restrictions ..also no modification plate so if want back to pillion you don't have to go get another mod plate

I'm with you there Nigel .
Having taken many risks in the past , I am so glad that at the time my son and I were both injured on the bike , and needed to claim , it was all legit .
What you save now on a solo seat CTP , could cost you more later on . The final decision is up to the individual .

So that's right easy, and the money you save will allow you to buy a solo seat and go like Gas's 75 cool.

Nigel,  

A cafe racer?  Me, no, not ever.  I do have a seat that is similar to the Corbin Gunfighter and the footpegs have been removed.
