Suggestions for Next Project
juitz:
Got my eye on a couple of potential project bikes on eBay.
One of the cb500 has a saddle type seat (not sure what it's actually called) but not to my taste. I assume there's no issue sticking a standard seat without mods?
Laverdaroo:
They're called 'king and queen seats' but when you read that just say 'shite' out loud. You should be able to bob a standard seat on that no problems providing the catch etc hasn't been knackered fitting that eye sore?
Oddjob:
The King and Queen seats (read Shite) were just bolt on add ons back in the day, they didn't require any mods to the existing systems as far as I know.
Laverdaroo:
And they are too!
Bit like the obsession of stupid handlebars to make the bikes handle badly.

Had one on the 750 when it came from the states. Horrible carbuncle of a thing. I’m sure it was leather. Probably an expensive item in its day. I was that convinced there would not be anybody wanting to buy it in this country I fired it in the skip at our local recycling centre. 😆😆
