550F seat on a 77 k model bike
« on: March 20, 2012, 09:43:58 AM »
Will a 550f seat fit on a 1977 550k bike? I'm seat less atm and found a nice F seat for a groovy price!

Thanks,

Max

They look the same to me apart from the pattern. You can compare them here.

The F seat will leave a gap at the tank. The F tank is longer at the rear, and accordingly, the F seat is shorter.

Good to know. I had a CX500 seat on my F for a while. It just didn't look right but it's all I could find.

HondaHondaHonda, bad news eh?  Well, if anyone else is interested in a very nice cb550f seat, then let me know.

I'll keep an eye out for a 550k seat too. I think I've seen one posted on san Francisco C/L lately.
