Bought a H2R seat (Airtech Streamlining) to fit on my H1 -71, but having some trouble about how to attach it to the frame properly, it said no modifications had to be done to frame. Any tips/pictures on how others have done?

A H2R frame is totally different from a H1 frame. I would have to guess it will take a lot of creativity to get it to fit.

It´s a wider seat than original H2R, so it will slip over a stock H1 frame, just curios how others have attached it to the frame etc.

Probably have to cut the seat hinges off the LH tube and possibly the seat catch off the RH tube. Then either weld several tabs onto the frame to bolt to, or use "P" (Adel) clamps.

We have a national fiberglass H2r replica style seat. No seat hinges on frame and it bolts front and back onto the frame x members with some high density rubber down the side rails for support. Rear frame rails cut off. Seems to work. This is how the bike came to us.
