78cb750k seat
« on: August 10, 2017, 08:35:21 AM »
 I'm shopping for a seat for my CB 750 K. Can anybody recommend a brand of seat that is comfortable yet slimmer than the original? I'm hoping for a café racer almost flat top look.  I also want to be able to travel more than 50 miles without regretting it, and carry a passenger for more than 20 miles.
 What brands are you guys happy with?

Those flat seats look really uncomfortable if youre planning on mileage.
Find an original pan and shape/pad one that fits your a$$(e$)/style.

Directly from Vietnam.
Some here have had decent results, others have had fitment issues.
Hopefully someone will chime in.
