Has anyone noticed that the Honda seat logo has returned. Here's an example and look at the rest of the adverts it brings up. Putting Piki out of work.  ;D    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HONDA-CB450-BLACK-BOMBER-SEAT-COVER-BEST-QUALITY/261374076961?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160727114228%26meid%3D531d29035829443ca2d9f0ff3d9df5dd%26pid%3D100290%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D261374076961&_trksid=p2060778.c100290.m3507

Be careful with any replacement Bomber K0 seat covers Roy it should have GREY piping not black to be like the original.

Kettle738 on here  donated me one (with LOGO) from the far east that looks very good quality but it has silver piping ...I am trying to source the correct grey piping for it as there is a vehicle upholsterer in Hull (D.L. Barr & Sons) who I used to be at school with (Well one of the sons) , who can stitch it in for me. I did think of using vinyl dye  but that's a last resort.

I also have tried to source the grey piping Ash, but as you say all the ones available are a very vivid silver. I am going to go with black and possibly a lip front as well as I intend to use the Bomber as a daily rider....... Although I do like it to be correct where possible I'm not too bothered by little bits like that, especially if it makes for easier use..... If it was a part that cant be easily put right later though, it would have to be correct. I have gone the extra mile to get a correct front mudguard rather than the incorrect Silvers item...... I did buy a set of Silvers silencers (before the price goes up yet again) and they are a very good replica. Only difference I can see is the welded lip is very slightly larger. That said, you would have to get both silencers next to each other and look closely to see it. And that I'm afraid for me is Get a Life Time.  ;D  The biggest problem with the silencers is that they are made in Italy, and we all know about Italian chroming.

MrDavo:
I'm surrently waiting for an early CL450 seat from Texavina in Vietnam. I'll let you know how it is and how much I get hammered for duty etc when it gets here, it seems to be coming via turtle.

Anyhoo, they do a Black Bomber seat with the Logo in white, silver, gold or none, piping in grey black and white, with or without the lip. I couldn't comment on accuracy for the CB seat, but the CL one looks the business and is unobtainium elsewhere.
