I have a 76 CB750 F which I am tidying up gradually - had some bits rechromed
I need a new seat - or at least the 2 strips that run along the bottom of the seat
They are Not available from Dave Silver.
I think F1 & F2 Seats are the same
Any other ideas ?
Thanks in anticipation,

Sorry, To answer an earlier question,
No, a GS wouldnt be as Comfortable as a Goldwing,
but many many People take their partners as Pillions on GS's for week long tours,

I’m still here, just listening.
Appreciate the advice and feedback. Thanks to all.
Yes, insurance is proving to be a big hurdle but I havnt given up yet.
As mentioned, There are Bike taxis, so someone must insure them.
I realise it could be a huge cost, but I can’t even get a figure yet.
I also realise that kit will be a hurdle to overcome, but again, not
Given up yet.
Still chasing my pipe dream from my armchair.
Wouldn’t it be great if it works tho

I'd like to offer people the chance to ride pillion on my GS1200 in nice places - maybe starting with UK but then including Alps, Vosges, Picos etc -
for a day or two.
I'm in the process of researching.
So, Questions are:
Is there a market for this ?
ie Would people be willing to get on a 'strangers' bike - I've been riding for 17years continally since returning to biking. I've toured Europe every year for the last 7 years. I am IAM Advanced rider with Clean Licence, no Points, mid fifties, married with kids.
France in Sept How to find bed or camp on the same day
in Touring
Posted
Hi, I'm Planning on touring in France in Sept 2020 - mainly west to the south, but maybe all over with 2 others, seperate bikes.
Question is/are:
How easy is it to find somewhere to stay - B&B or camp - at about mid afternoon on the same day ?
What tools/apps/websites would be really good for this
and does anyone think it will be a problem to find somewhere to stay - especially with current pandemic ?
We will take lightweight camping gear
The idea is to be able to be free to travel whereever the bike points, then lay hat & have a beer !
