Thanks for the posting and the pics, Doug. I'm really glad you're pleased.
The following is definitely a shameless plug! For direct purchases from board members with over 25 postings, I'm doing a run of these seats at a discounted price. $290 plus USPS Priority Insured shipping. As Doug mentioned, I can make them with or without logos, in most colors. The most popular logo colors are Gold, Silver or White. I can do
No Logos, "
Honda" only, or "
Honda" with "
CB750" on the sides of the hump. I produce these seats for the 1969-1976 CB750K only. Other models
may be made later, but I ain't getting any younger.
Guys who have gotten these seats tell me that they're extremely comfortable and that the curved foam gives them a little more leg extension while stopped on the bike. The seat is a complete bolt-on replacement allowing for you to put your original seat back on for two-up riding.
There's not a lot of room and several of my vendors raised their prices recently, but I'll contribute $10 to the board for every seat sold to a board member.
The seat can be made in either a perfect replication of the original 1970's Giuliari seat from Italy (like Doug's) or in a plain unupholstered hump, paintable to match the bike's paint color.
All the hardware, including the hinges, is custom made in stainless steel. The excellent seat foam is custom molded by a large LA-based company. The vinyl is high-quality marine grade; the embossed pattern is a
perfect replication of the Giuliari. The seat base is exceptionally strong and stiff. The rubber bumpers are Honda ($$$) OEM. No compromises on quality! All the components are made in the USA and I do the final assembly here in San Diego.
Since I make these seats to order, lead time is usually about a week. So guys, just drop me a PM if you're in the game and I'll build one for you. Thanks!
RR
