Hi all, I just bought a new seat for an ES2 but I thing this one is for 1956 on. And the ES2 I'm working on is from 1955. As it seems to be the same frame, it would be fine to have some pics about a 56 model to seehow to fit it. Many thanks, regards, BenoÃ?t

HiSundarraju,
53 and 54 (H12/540)are the same part on all single downtube bikesbut still not the same as a 55 (K12/540). Beware of incorrect seats with this part number; if it doesn't look like a bsa seat then it's completely wrong for a 55.
Pic of the correct 55 seat baseattached.

I've been after one of these seats for twelve months without success. Tried all the manufacturers but most hadn't even heard of them!

Hi Jim,
Yes correct, I've this type of seat. Mine is a original 55 seat which I bought from Belgium some year ago. Tonight I'll post photo of the seat.
Aside Stuart,
Since I've the correct seat for my 53 model so now the 55 seat is spare for me. Do let me know if you wants it.

Hi Benoit,
It may not fit at all. The 55 seat is unique to 55; it looks very like a BSA seat and fits in a similar way to theirs at the back. At the front it has a separate bracket that fits to the top tube under the tank. The part number for this bracket is K4/1094. Can anyone with a 56 parts list confirm if this part continued after 55?
