zx12r question

I had a zx9r for a couple years and recently got rid of it and got a 03 zx12r. I just have a couple questions about it and to the experienced zx12 owner might come across as dumb, but I really want to know. Why does the rear cowl have those long bolts on it (under the rear seat) what purpose do they serve? Also on the right side of the frame directly under the seat is a cover that is part of the frame...what is housed behind this cover? that cover has a snapped of bolt and if its just some crap beind there I wont worry about trying to get the snapped bolt out. The bike came with a devil high mount carbon fiber exhuast, I havent been able to find any reviews on this exhaust...does anyone out there have or had it? and what do you think about it? Any info would be awesome..thanks, E

Hi there

The long bolts on the rear plastics are luggage hooks - the bike is sold as a "sports tourer" - their description not mine!

The cover you're talking about sounds like the battery cover and sooner or later you're gonna need to sort that bolt out!
