Question about my seat Cal2

[Gusable]

So my new to me cal2 has the short skunk on it and when I see these bikes you see the seat lines don’t match up with the tank on a lot of them but some they do. Normal for the seat to be high in the front? How much?  Just got the bike so I haven’t played with it at all. I’m excited to get this one cleaned up and on the road!

Seat has solid legs that sit on frame, tank is supposed to have rubbers on frame to support it, hooks under rubbers in front.  I have a 86 and paint never matched anything on seat.
Look in parts book & make sure the correct rubbers are for tank.

Thank you

Rubbers under tank on frame have a thick side & thin side to them, Spin them around for thick side up and rubber fits the form on bottom of tank. Might raise tank to meet seat. Mine has a police solo seat mounted.

I was looking at it last night. The seat does have those metal brackets on the front that sit on the frame. It sits very high on top of the frame. There’s actually an air gap. If you look from the side under the seat, you can see the top rails of the chassis. I don’t know if the seat is it correct for bike or not.

That’s the way they are, seats are very tall and sit above the frame rails. So much so at the right angle you can see through the seat to the frame. Cal II is a bit of an odd bike.

That explains it! Thank so much.
