    Correct seat for GS750 ( see attached )

    Please see the attached article from a 1976 magazine page from CycleWorld.

      Mattfeet..the 78 750E had that rectangular pattern that looks like it has then heat pressed stitching. If you click on my avatar and choose my 750 album, youll see the original 77 750 B pattern my upholsterer actually stitched in using the original seat cover for her pattern.

      Here is a picture of the original seat that was on my 78 750 E. Stepped seat with the familiar rectangular pattern.

      I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

          That's odd. I wonder if my seat is not original? I can't find a cover to match for a non-stepped seat.

              So what are we deciding on these covers? Are they decent quality or too thin? I need at least two covers but I am skeptical they are heavy duty enough

                They are awesome and heavy duty materal. ive gotten 3 or 4 from TC and they are great covers. AND detail is paid attention too.

                          Is yours a step or flat seat version? You can buy directly from my site if there is no one organizing a GB.

                                Hello everyone, just like to revisit this page to check out if we should start a GB purchase for those who need or waiting to restore their bike this winter.
