Have anyone tried to put a single seat directly on the original seatpan? This question is for the cb650z mainly, but if you have the seatpan you can open it goes for any cb650 model.

Re: Set on seatpan???
Only the Z 650's had opening seats. All others bolted on. You might look at a couple of the builds on sohc4. One was in a 550 frame but same basic design.
Did you clean the tank out?!?!?!?!

Re: Seat on seatpan???
I'll explain my idea here: As the edge of the edge of the seatpan tend to rust i have the idea to put a single seat in the front of the seatpan. And at the rear a smaller seat, that is because the laws here, in Sweden, demands a registration inspection if you change from a two seater to a one seater. Therefore, I want to get hold of a seat that fits to put directly on the seatpan.

In other countries the Z did go up to 81 I believe. Maybe 82. The tail was diff though so dont know if the seat was.

Re: Seat on seatpan???
Well i have realized that you may not really undetstood my plan but in time i hope i can show you what i originally meant. The original seat cover on my bike dont sit well as the edges have rustedon the seatpan. So my plan is to bolt a solo seat directly on the original seatpan. The solo seat i'm thinking of is the type you see on a customized Harley Davidson, the wider types. Wide as i'm a heavy guy.
