Many covers nowadays come without a logo - something to do with IPR owned by Honda I think.
If you buy a cover without a logo it is easy to apply one using a template from Piki on this forum or eBay and suitable spray paint.
I needed a new cover and wanted the logo but I wasn't going to turn down a perfectly good cover that didn't have a logo, just
fitted the cover then added the logo afterwards - it's not difficult.

I agree about some parts from DS being good value, but you need to look around and check (as with many things).

AshimotoK0:
I got this back from DS ( I know that the K2 had 4 'panels' imprint at the rear as there was one of those seats on my K0 when I bought it but I still maintain it looks a good price). Perhaps he can offer two versions, pretty sure Morretti will have the 4-panel imprint tool.


"Hi Ash,
Someone has flagged to me the that an SOHC forum member has stated that the pattern on our CB750K2 seat is wrong. Attached are photos of the seat that

Honda were supplying for the CB750K2 for the past 25 years, up until they were no longer available last year and our seat.
I cannot see the difference myself…

Best Regards
David"

This is a K2 seat cover.

Though I had a K2 bike in from Germany with a three panel pattern. The 3 square across x 18 squares was used in the USA on some late K2's, K3, K4, K5, K6 and the UK K6.
Which one looks like the one you had Ash ?

Is that DSS showing a seat with a Honda logo on it ?  ;D ;D ;D
 

MCTID:
The photos of the two seats which DS has posted are comparing the original Honda seat and the version which DS is now offering. Given that a new seat cover is about £40, a strap and fittings may be another £20 and the 'chrome' trim another £20 - if bought separately from the numerous Suppliers offering these parts, it makes the DS seat an attractive purchase.......and at a price that you could afford to keep your original seat in the loft and fit a pattern replacement........IMHO.
