    That's odd....I believe I sent my cooley seat after you sent yours. I have a tracking number for mine and the replica is posted on ebay.

      If my memory serves me correctly, they always did have the Cooley (Thier version of the 79 gs 1000 ) listed. I recall lookingb at them before i sent my cover and saw that it was the wrong pattern. Now is your coming back to you free of charge or did they charge you?

        They did have the cooley cover listed. I had many emails back and forth and finally convinced them that my cooley cover for the 80 model was the correct design.

        As they list in their ebay ads, if you supply the seat for a template, your cover is free. That is the deal we made, no charge for my cover. I did pay to ship my cover, but that is it.

        I will post pictures of the cover when I receive it. They do have it listed on ebay with pics and it looks pretty good.

        I had the option of the authentic stitching or the embossed vinyl. I chose the stitched option for the authenticity, so I would assume that the ones listed on ebay are the same.

          I believe I have a luggage rack for the 750A. Let me know if you want it.

            I have the rack with the Hondamatic..not in the best shape. I was gonna throw it out and not get another. But thanks for the offer.

              Found some pics of the bike the day it showed up on the semi. The one is in the back of the truck still on the shipping pallet. Small crease in the rear right of the tank and rusty where the stickers were on the top. Thanks for passing the old girl to me Scot..
