550/4 Seats
« on: October 10, 2005, 10:45:41 AM »
Guys

I've got an oportunity to buy a good  seat for a 550/4, but can only see it by picture. The seller tells me its from a 78K bike. Will it fit my 78 F2 or are there differances in the fitting arangments?

Regards

In the US, the CB550F was only available in 75-77 model years.
Assuming you have a 77F first tittled in 78...  I think it is unwise to try a 78K seat on the 77F.  I believe there will be grab bar interference.
