1966 frame/seat mount

Post by Scooterd » Wed Mar 30, 2011 8:15 pm

Does the 1966 frame come with a welded seat mount for the front of the seat to fit into? I'm looking at this frame and there is not mount for seat, what's the deal?

Does that mount near the gas tank? Do you have pics of the part? So the frame should be okay for this year? I have another frame (68) and it has a "latch" up front for the front of the seat to slide into.
Thanks for all of your help.

Hi Scooterd. Welcome to the forum. Please add your city/state. Who knows who might live next door.

This is my 1966 CB77. Does this help?

It does, however my frame is CL77 so I am more confused, I have seen some frames with a bulge at the front where the front of the seat mounts. My other frame (68) has a latch for seat, so I am wondering if I need to weld something on or if there is some part I am missing for the seat mount?

Thanks.

Early/ Late seats

Post by conbs » Fri Apr 01, 2011 11:21 am

There are early (65) and late (66+?) seats for CL's which changed at frame number 1033481. Make sure which frame and seat you have first. They mount differently.

I have both variations. Now as far as the front of the seat and where it attaches to frame its that piece welded? Or is there a part that bolts on to hold front portion of seat?
Thanks.
