CB 500 Four seat hinges cut off

<< < (2/2)

Siloxious:
Thanks for the answer!

Indeed, the first picture is the hinge that you'd mount to the seat pan.

I'm sorry, I think I haven't been clear enough haha. My suggested solution would be to mount this hinge (first picture) to the seat pan as it would be in any CB500. Then, I'd use the middle hinge (of the second picture) as a replacement for the two tubes on the frame that have been sawed off. So, it would be welded on the frame in the exact location that the tubes would be. Then, the hinge on the seat pan would be connected to the welded hinge on the frame via a pin.

I was just wondering, if this middle hinge (second picture) fits in between the sides of the original hinge on the seat pan (picture 1) and if they have the same pin size.

Trigger:
I would not know and you would not know until, you have them in your hand and measured them up. The CB750F1 bracket is different size from the bracket you require for your seat  ;)

Oddjob:
If the hinge and the bracket don't end up compatible maybe use the bracket off the 750 as well.
