Actually, the OEM 400F seat looks crap to me, so I reckon that one's an improvement! Your bike looks good mate, Cheers, Terry.

AHEM!!! 

What's wrong with the 400F seat? 

Fugly is what fugly is................

Well if you're too much of a philistine to appreciate seat studs and the upturned tail, well I feel for you.

Whassa Phillistine mate? Anyway, the flat, featureless 400F seat is particularly fugly with those weird studs and the way the rear of the seat hangs out in mid-air over the fender, typical Japanese design "art" of the era, that only a monomaniacal 400F owner could love, uuuurrrggghhhh! That's why I like what Lee's done, he's not only made that seat more practical, he's also made it more attractive too! Cheers, Terry.

Flat and featureless describes ANY factory set of that era!! 

The upswept rear of the seat give it he "Daytona Racer" look, a motorcycling magazine said so.    Plus, those seat studs give the right touch of "bling" to make the ladies go "Ooohh, aaahhh".  Shine 'em up and it's dazzling. 

I admit to being a full-on 400F Cult member.  Except there is no weird punch in this Cult.   

The 400F is the epitome of perfection.  EXCEPT FOR THAT DAMN CAMCHAIN TENSIONER!!!!!

Ha ha, fair enough mate, if a magazine said that, than it must be true! I know that the ladies like 'em, back in the day, only ladies rode 'em, ha ha! Anyway, enjoy it mate, they were a nice little bike, for sure! Cheers, Terry.

...Tasty 400 Lee.......good work getting her back on the road. As far as the seat goes, it's not so bad.  Since you have built kind of a Special, a cafe seat would look cool too, IMHO. Or, find a stocker...since a seat takes about 2 mns to swap out, you could change your 'look' at will.

I like what you've done.

Did the engine look bad before? is that why you decided to paint it up?

Personally I like the seat. Thinking of storing my standard seat and getting a solo, so when/if I sell my cb550 I will still have a nice seat.
peace.

But what are you gonna do with just a seat and no bike Michel?
