Are, you sure it is, for a DOHC? I notice, you have it on a SOHC frame. I think it looks good myself.

Did the frame rails need to be trimmed off at the rear to install it?

nope...its got two bolt holes at the rear that lined up to the two holes at the end of the frame. that was one of the reasons i bought it was so i didnt have to cut my frame. but it doesnt quite fit the shape of my frame and i didnt want to hack it up and re-glass it.

Re: FOR SALE: CARPY'S CAFE SEAT DOHC

the part in the front hit my tank and the mounting bolt, it wouldnt fit the frame right, behind the seat. Like i said, it could fit but id have to hack up a perfectly usable seat for someone whose bike it actually fits. I just saw that it fit 750f's and didnt even pay attention to it being a SOHC seat for the late 70's models.

nope...i just have the fiberglass cowl. I was curious when you asked me about the fitment on my bike, so i re-fitted it. The way the frame on my bike curves up in the back wont allow the seat to sit flat on the frame over the battery. So if you level up the seat on the back of the frame it has a 1" gap between the fiberglass and frame

I can see how it would not fit a DOHC frame. I was thinking that the pictures were of your bike, but I see now they are from Crapy's site.
Will, you take paypal?

Yea I can do that...heres a picture of the actual seat. It has a small spot on it with little cracks around it, they arent deep and are only in the gel coat, very easy fix. Also, the guy I got it from painted the back for some reason?? Not sure, but if you want it, its yours Tools! Check it out and let me know what you want to do

you can see the spot in the picture...it looks kinda wavy. the spot almost looks like a run. I scuffed it up and its not cracked. It looks more like resin got built up in that area and what I thought were crack are actually creases. The underside looks untouched so nothing appears to have been modified. The guy may have just painted it to see how noticeable the spot was under paint??
