It doesn't say anything about being a seat for a special and I can't really tell by the pics.
I hope it works for ya bro'.

It's a 80-81 Standard seat that will fit the 79 Special.
The only prob with the seat is the seller listed it as NOS
and it is not new, dang close but the pan has been freshened-up
with gloss black paint and you can see where some overspray
got on the edges of the vinyl next to the pan and there's even
black spray paint on the mounting hardware which he could have
easily taken off when he shot the pan...very lazy job to be deceptive...
I'll know better than to ever buy from him again...
Otherwise, I'm pretty happy, just hate being lied to or deceived...BY A MORON
Now, if I can just get the bike here from Cal...

Really, you got a deal on that for $75. Even if it is used, it is still be a deal. But I do hear you on the deception part. I'd report him to ebay.Last edited by DGXSER; 01-22-2012, 06:41 AM.Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

I did report him to eBay to no avail...
I really didn't want to send it back, the thing
is like new except I know it's been freshened-up
Never be able to tell when it's mounted on the bike
The vinyl looks showroom fresh...Ah the smell of a new bike

Didn't state it would'nt fit, just not correct for the 81H.....different pattern and WAY different seat style on the topside for the Venturer. I only know that as my original seat sits in the closet having only seen a couple months of daylite......ever. Bike carries an era correct original Corbin tour seat.Originally posted by tv5150 View PostStock on the 80 Standard, but it will fit the 81 Standard81H Venturer1100 "The Bentley" (on steroids) 97 Yamaha YZ250(age reducer) 92 Honda ST1100 "Twisty"(touring rocket) Age is relative to the number of seconds counted 'airing' out an 85ft. table-top.Comment
