Up for grabs is another hard to find genuine 70's chopper part: CHEATAH CHOPPERS "DUKE & DUTCHESS" KING & QUEEN SEAT (For Swingarm)
This is straight out of the 70's Cheat'ah Choppers Catalog: The Duke & Dutchess 10" Back with Square Stitch. (See Photo #12 out of the Original Cheat'ah Choppers Catalog)
CONDITION:
Please look carefully at all of the pictures and use the supersize and zoom features to make your own final judgement, I have tried to highlight the item from all angles. Here is the condition as I see it:
- Seat is in overall good condition for a 70's survivor.
- Seat Cover is in overall good conditition (see photos 1-5). There is typical wear and tear on the front from frame rub/contact and at the back of the passenger backrest where the seat has rubbed against a sissybar (see photos 6-8). The square panel stitching is all very good with no loose or pulled threads.
- Seat Base is in overall fair condition. The original carpet padding is still mostly attached but has seen better days and is worn out/missing/falling off mostly near the front (see photos 9-11) All mounting bolts are intact and threads appear to be ok (see photos 10, 11).
FITMENT:
This is a custom 70's aftermarket seat and will require some modification and or custom brackets to be properly fitted. I believe this is a swingarm mount seat (may be able to be fitted to a rigid with minor re-working of the seat pan). Please make sure you will be able to use the seat on your application, or that you are comfortable with custom fitting to your bike (Harley, Triumph, Rigid, Swingarm, etc.) before purchase.
The seat dimensions are as follows:
Total length: 29"
Driver (King) Section: 8.5" wide x 11.5" long
Hump height (Rise from base of the king section): 12" tall
Passenger (Queen) Section: 6.5" wide x 14" long
Passenger Backrest Height: 10" tall
SHIPPING:
- Seat is heavy and large and will require extra attention when shipping to make sure it arrives safely as pictured (especially internationally), this is factored into the shipping price. My shipping price always includes the cost of FULL VALUE INSURANCE and for items over $750 also includes SIGNATURE DELIVERY CONFIRMATION (this requires USPS Express, UPS, or FedEx delivery for International) this is not an option due to the value/rarity of the item and eBay policy. Cost also takes into account eBay and PayPal fees as well as packaging, materials, and time to make sure your item is professionally packaged and shipped within 1 business day and arrives to you safe and as pictured. If you have any questions/issues please feel free to ask, I am also open to working with you to save $ anywhere I can within reason but when working through eBay I will always follow eBay rules/regulations/policies, this is not an option when transacting business on eBay.
*Please look at all of the pictures carefully and message me with any questions or if you would like any additional photos or description of the item. Please also do your own research if you are looking to make sure your restoration is 100% model year correct as I do my best to research and confirm the exact year(s) for all parts as best I can but make no guarantees. I also do my best to describe each item in detail and take as many photos as possible, if you are ever unsatisfied with any item and feel anything was misrepresented please let me know and I will do what I can to make you happy. In the end I'm just another poor guy supporting his own motorcycle addiction*
