CB125T Seat

[S1417]

Hi, I'm new here having been reading the forum for a while but only now have I come up with a question that I cant already find the answer to on here.

For the past year I've been rebuilding a 1980 CB125T, with the hope of being able to ride it when I turn 17 next month (currently riding a 50cc). When I got it the seat was missing so I've been keeping an eye out on ebay etc for a replacement but have had no luck. Now my birthdays getting a lot closer I'm looking for other options as I'd rather not be stuck on my moped for any longer than i have to, so i was wondering if anyone knew on any other seats that would fit it, or can think of any other options as a temporary measure until i can find the correct seat for it.

One option i was looking at was possibly the later CB125TD models, as there's a couple of seats from those available, however from what i understand it was a completely updated bike so I'm not sure if the seat would fit or not?

Here's a picture of the hinge with dimensions on just in case it's of any help. https://www.dropbox.com/s/4n2mtj90fe4r27p/IMG_20140430_183715.jpg

Yeah I've come across quite a few of Tef's essays whilst looking for info on this bike

Ahh, okay no worries. Would i be right in guessing the TD models seat wouldn't just be a straight swap?

Yeah that was my main reason for doubting it would. It was more of a worst case scenario, if the bracket happened to be the same I could use it temporarily until i found something more permanent.

I think trying to bodge a similar seat on will probably be the plan now as i can't seem to find anything that looks like a straight swap.

Thanks for that, I'll have a search and see if I can find it anywhere else

The other option is the David silver repro seat but at £130 excluding the seat lock and hinge I'd rather avoid it....
