CB550K3 chrome seat trim - clips

(1/2) > >>

totty:
Hi,

Could anyone tell me what the clips which hold the chrome trim to the seat are called?

They aren't shown on the parts diagrams at cmsnl or listed by Silvers. I got the bike out this morning to ride to work and found one end of the trim loose.

Thanks

Allan

I don't think they are available as a separate item, but can be fabricated from a felt nail by filing the head to fit in the groove in the trim, I did this on my k3

Trigger:
Totty, are they aluminum rivets or the flat clips? If rivets that slide in the rail, then i use Land Rover aluminum body rivets. Or as Mick said; Roofing, felt nails. Never thought of that one Mick ;)

totty:
Sorry it's the clip I need, the thing that's kind of like a washer with teeth.

I still have all of the rivets.

mickwinf:
you can find similar clips at car body suppliers or paint shop, they use them to hold body trims and badges and often have assorted boxes of different types.
