Do you have the link to the rain cover? I looked around at the site and thought it would be linked to the bag but don't see it.

I just went down to my basement and took a few more pictures of the new seat. I added a removeable pad from the tail box to the back support to see how comfortable it would be. I would get that same support if the added pad was something soft necessary for a trip, such as rain gear or a coat. The seat is very, very comfortable. I can't wait to get on my scooter and ride again!

They might be a problem for some, but i don't feel them. Because mp motor has direct contact with the seat manufacturer, i am sure that this same seat could be made without the buttons, if you want them to.

You can't feel the buttons. They are recessed. I asked about them early on. I have about 150 miles at mainly 30 mph on nearly the same seat as Mel's and it is very comfortable. Looks is one thing and personal preference but feeling the buttons is a non-issue IMO.

Best regards to your forum attracted me to the debate on the seats PCX150 and I was surprised to find that there is a lot of things. I decided to register and relate this might have an interesting touch. Sorry about the language of work problems and help with Google translate, so the text quite a few mistakes please forgive me.

For starters I have a question for Mel46 namely how many cm is the new headquarters of the seating position retracted. What is the difference old - new headquarters.
Well, good luck Vector

The seat i have is for a 2013 and earlier pcx. Though it would not fit the newest version of the scooter, i believe they can make one for the latest version. However, i am pretty sure it will cost more because they would have to get the seat base from Honda, since it has not been made available to the third party manufacturers over there yet in large quantities. My wife has a custom seat from Thailand for her2013, with the back brace 34 cm from the back end. Mine has the back brace at between 23 and 24 cm from the back end. That gives me room to stretch my legs, and it is very comfortable.

Mel46, thank you for the comprehensive response. I realize that I have a different problem when sitting. I have no problems with their feet what to do with them. The problem to me is sitting too close to the steering wheel. So far I have 48 years of classic motor vehicles, now I switched because of health problems on the scooter and me upright sitting with elbows close to the sides somehow does not look better. However, this time I found that I could get a few cm spacing with moving the rudder on the spoiler. When I do I report what I have gained.
Well, good luck Vector

Mel46 what are you doing with your "old" seat? Do I recall that you may sell it? If yes can you post a link to pictures of it? Thanks,

Here is the link for my other custom seat that I am now selling for $100 plus shipping. It is a great seat and I enjoyed it, but as I have said previously, I needed a back brace because of my back surgeries, which now number 6 thanks to my most recent one. (It wasn't a major one but it did require cutting me open and inserting something under my skin.)
