Challenge with rebuilding a 1976 750 Supersport
« on: August 14, 2016, 06:21:36 PM »
I am almost complete done with my rebuilding of a 1976 Cb 750 Super Sport. Last time it was licensed was 1990. Stored in a damp basement until I rescued it in 2015. I only have body parts to finish and a little electrical work. The original seat was covered in cat claw holes and the seat frame was rusted and not usable for recovering so I bought a new seat from 4into1. Product quality is good, seat frame is plastic. For those of you familiar with the Super Sport from 1976, you might remember that there is a section located directly behind the seat made out of plastic. It is a small storage compartment and is suppose to be attached to the end of the seat and rotates up with the seat when the seat is lifted up. The problem with this seat is that there are no attachment locations on the seat to secure this plastic compartment to the seat. Anyone out there run into this same problem and come up with a solution? I really want to maintain the look of the back so leaving it off the bike and leaving the back end naked just doesn't look right. It's interesting that the seat I purchased is molded to take the plastic compartment but did not create any attachment points. The new seat has attachment points for the hinge and locking pin but that is it. Again, any suggestions would be appreciated
