1977 KZ1000A1 owners help...seat hook pic needed

I'm in need of a pic of anyone with a fairly original A1 to provide a decent pic or two of the seat hook....my search of the forum turned up someone last year or so looking for the same thing as both my 77's don't have a boss welded onto the frame to accept the hook and spring like my Mk2 does.

the fiche at PZilla shows a 78 frame with this 'tab' and a PN for the seat hook for the A2 but nothing listed for the A1.

I'm curious to what did the A1's come with as new???

any help is appreciated

I was thinking that the seat hook was added to the A2 in 1978.

1977 A

1978 (no seat hook, but has a tab)

thanks for your time and effort here Martin, odd how the 77 model was made without it.

Also I noted on these apparently original bikes how the frame paint varied from quite satin to low gloss.
