CB650C Rearsets.
« on: November 08, 2009, 04:47:28 PM »
Since the thread I started for clubman/clip-on bars was so much help, I thought I'd start this one.  Has anyone found rearsets that work on the 1980 CB650C?  Or, is there anyone out there that has made mounting blocks for them and willing to make another set?   ;D  Any help would be appreciated.

The non US Z models had rearsets.  Untill 81 I believe.  Someone cut all the extra BS off and used them.  There is a thread I think.

I had heard that...I just haven't been able to track them down anywhere.  Is there anyone selling aftermarked replacements of them?  I've been checking ebay for a few months now.

Ask on the 650 site.   Several European members on it.

Huh...so there is.  Surprised I've never stumbled upon this before.

Yes it almost went away this month but was rescued.  Been in that format for a few years.
Replaced another that had to be taken down.

Why was it going to go away?  I saw a thread about it going dark on the first, but I thought that was for maintenance.  (Didn't read it.)


Well, I posted there - we'll see.  Hoping that someone there or here will have some brilliance for me.

Chris was hosting it but needed to make budget cuts but another member steped up to take it over.   Some cool bikes there.  A few sohc4 members too.
