Jeep,that's the factory seat number, but the seat I have isn't the right one and doesn't fit or look factory. the number I posted above (4770C) is what im trying to find out what it fits.

from some of the pictures Ive looked at,, my seat is sure close to an 81 GSX400??

apparently it is the original seat, the previous owner just shaved it and recovered it because he was going for the "café" look to the bike.

Yeah. He missed the mark on that one. I wonder if you could rebuild it?

when I get another stock one I will see about repairing this one if I don't get rid of it

Last time I was at Coopers, they were breaking down a 550M - they might still have the seat.

yeah thanx,, ive seen a lot of pictures of these and my seat is way different. this seat wont even fit my 85 EF so I have no idea what its from. To bad he reupholstered the wrong yr seat lol.. ive checked ebay for a proper seat but haven't seen one. Im not in a big hurry to get one yet,, but will keep my eyes open for one. maybe trade mine some day,

thanx a lot for the pictures.
