I should have posted this previously for reference.
Seat Height specifications for the Aus seat vs US are:
775mm vs 795mm = 20mm
or
30.5" vs 31.3" = 0.8"
I haven't got out the tape measure to actually check the Honda published numbers but the pictures posted look to show even more difference. Around 1" is my best guesstimate ?
From what I can see online the seat height specs published for the US CB 1100 2013 or 2014 are the same as that above 31.3" regardless of model.
So far I like the new seat. That DLX seat is quite substantial and looks and feels more like a real CB.
Sold to buy the new bike last year. More restoration was just too frustrating and costly when you just want to get out and ride. I miss the K7 but not the reliability from someting 37 years old.
