The seat is KO, but lowered style, often seen in years 70.

Riccardo what is difference betwen my seat pan and your new one seat ,the pan look sameting,no?
The look is caused by Lowered  who strecher leather down to compensate for subsidence of red foam.
 that's why he did over the chrome trim.

The pan you have is late KO.
The early sandcast cames with a differen few holes pan.
You can find and see these differences on this site on dadicated pages.
Regarding the trim, visit Yamiya (tank and seat), you'll find them with all miscellaneus parts.

What does the back plate of the caliper look like ?  (the part that holds the pad opposite the piston)   The fins on the back will be different from the later models

I had a 75 that had that marking (tokiko 8) like that one in your photo.
