What's the buzz on the latest repop seats?? -
11-22-2009, 02:00 AM
Hello Everyone!
I hope all is well out there in Trail 70 land. Can anyone offer an opinion on the latest K0 repop seats that are out there? They all appear to be the same. Is this also the same seat that CHP offers? Anyone buy one? Are they worthy? Thanks, George CT70H K0 CT70H K1 |

George,
At the bottom of my post is a link to a really good thread on the KO seat subject. At the end are photos of the new CHP seats. Not nearly as good as I had hope. I believe the best seat currently available is made by "Asian Honda" and they are selling on Ebay occasionally. The only flaw I can see is that they are missing is the vertical stitching near the back sides. Other than that the shape, botton placement, shock divits, and seam spacing is close enough not to get hung up on. The thread has photos of the top three seats currently available. Asian Honda KO seats I'm love'n your new avatar! 1970 CT70HK0 Candy Emerald Green (restored) 1972 CT70HK1 Candy Ruby Red (restoration in work) |

I have a CHP seat on the way. I don't think the picture on the other thread does seat justice. I have bought at least 15 of the CHP seats in the past and have be very happy. When the seat gets here I will place it on a bike and take some shots.
Would this be helpful?  "You need an industrial-strength/world-class BS filter to figure out who's telling the truth and those aren't easy to come by." racerx |

CHP Seat -

I am always looking for K0 seat pans and they are definitely hard to come by. This would be a nice affordable, time saving alternative to welding cracked and rusted 40 year old seat pans and going through the restoration process. Is it possible that these come from a Honda mfg. plant in China? There is a Honda website that bears the Honda Asia name. CT70H K0 CT70H K1 |
