The PO for my 82 GK modified the original seat. It doesn't look bad but I would really like to find an original seat. So far I haven't been able to find one that didn't come with an entire bike attached. Just figured I'd check here and see if A. Anyone here had one by some odd chance. B. Anyone had any good ideas on where to look or go about finding one?

Looking for a GK seat

Info:
- GK seat pan mounting is same as 1100G seat pan mounting, only the seat cushion&cover shape is different. I have swappped a GK seat with a 1100G seat (not GL), they both fit the frame the same, although the GK seat is a little narrower in the front.
- GK specific seats will lot more difficult to find than a 1100G seat. ANd some of the GK seats will be the two tone.
In another post you mentioned your GK has been Dee-Kayed, so maybe an 1100G seat will suffice.

Thanks for the info. I was wondering which seats would be interchangeable. You're right, the bike has been stripped down so maybe a regular G seat will do. I really like the look of the original GK seat. But that specific bike was only made for a few years, so yes. It may be really hard to find. Maybe I'll get lucky and find an old parts bike or something that I can buy for kind of cheap that still has the seat.
