Howdy,
I purchased a basket case gt550 74 which had this seat on it. After media blasting and painting I am trying to sell it on ebay. A viewer informed me that this is not the right seat. I've searched the web and can't find out for sure what bike it fits. It looks like a gt550 but instead of side hinges it has a large hinge at the back (which lines up with rear frame and fender). Any help will be appriecated. Bob

I can tell you for sure that it does NOT match the seat pan on my '74.

the early honda cb450's hinged in the rear like that. there might be others, but thats the only one i can think of off hand.

I never met a motorcyclist I didn't like and members on this forum are no exception. Ask and you will receive. You are correct this is in fact a CB450 k1-k2 seat. Thanks all for your help....
