Rear rack seat

Post by dispense » Thu Oct 22, 2020 12:04 am

Hi,

I'm looking for a rear rack seat - the one's which bolt straight onto the back of rear racks. I have a 2002 JDM C90 and having trouble finding one. Most of the Japanese market bikes are sold with the single seat configuration. I bought a double long seat from ebay, it arrived from Thailand okay, I took off the single seat and the stock rear rack, but the seat doesn't fit at, not even close. The seat is flat, the Cub chasis is curved, quite a lot. I'm sending it back as was sold incorrectly. Later the seller admitted "Oh..I need to let you know
this is for 1972-1989 C70 Model year my friend". From looking at some pictures of Japanese custom cubs, most of the double seats for JDM cubs seem to have the single seat and then the pillion square seat which bolts directly on top of the rear rack. I've tried searching Yahoo Actions in Japan (ヤフオク) but haven't found anything there which looks like it will fit. Anyone know more information? Here's a pic of my bike....

Looks like you could order one from CMSNL or at least grab the part number and try David Silvers or Fowlers or even Honda themselves.

Seems to be 2 different styles of rack so a good ferret around on their site would be needed.

If it's anything like my Chinese bike (licenced copy of the circa 2001 bike) the rear rack pad is held on by spring clips, rack is similar too. Definitely wouldn't want anyone to travel far on it but would be OK in an emergency.

Hi. Have a look at this bit i did on the 12v seats, as it may help you.

[viewtopic.php?f=57&t=31846]

With your bike having the tin tail backend.
The twin seat and bracket i think you need is the same as the 12v round headlight models,the longer seat from the square headlight needs the rear mudguard bracket to fit the seat bracket on.

I purchased one from GoldenSpokes a few mo the back for my JDM c90.

I do have a spare but it is with me outside of the U.K. if you don’t get one please let me know but you would have to wait until when I get back in late March?
