Hello from So Cal,
« on: March 13, 2007, 09:18:53 PM »
Just wanted everyone to know that I am not only new to the club, but, bikes as well, for the most part.  I recently picked up a 1977 cb750k, low mileage and decent looks.  I'm a mechanic by trade, but helicopters not bikes.  I've managed to get the bike up and running fairly well, but will soon be looking for help to upgrade.  If anyone has any helpful hints, I especiallyy need info on OEM seats.  I have an original pan with aftermarket king/queen seat, I would like some help and/or advice on having a OEM replica made.  Thanks, talk to ya all soon.

Welcome Monger!
 I'm down by the border.  There are links in this site for your seat replacement.  Andoo, I'm sure that I've seen your vid on youtube.
