Finding a Seat for 74 CB550
« on: January 10, 2009, 05:36:35 AM »
Hi everyone,
I am fixing up a 1974 CB550 and I would like to replace the current seat which is two tier. I am trying to find the traditional flat style seat that most CB's have. I managed to locate a seat from a CB 1000. In the picture it looks like the seat I am looking for. Will this fit or be too large?

If anyone has info on this or could point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.
