Hi, just joined this group. We are on our 2nd SW. 1sr was an 03, now have a 12. I recently in a moment of distraction rear ended a car. In beginning to replace body parts I find the frame is bent. So I need to know what is the dimension is from the seat hinge pin to center of ignition switch. It is necessary to remove the seat to get this dimension accurately. Anyone willing to measure that length for me so I know how much the frame needs pushed back forward? Thanks in advance. Lou

That’s probably a question best answered by a Honda shop. If even they would know. However a brief online check shows that the basic frame (5010-MCT-L61) is available from Partzilla for ~$865 or Ron Ayers for ~$650.

Thanks for the info. That certainly gives me a option to totally restore it. I do think I can straighten it fine if I get that dimension.
