Hi,

New PCX 150 owner to soon be and to this forum. I haven't taken delivery on my 2019 PCX 150 yet. Hoping dealer calls this week with the good news. But I am 6' 2" and sat on a 2016 PCX 150 in "the dip" and thought it a little tight. So, I researched seats and found Cheeky Seats. Working with the owner Suzy, I had her make a customer seat cover that I think will work great to fill in "the dip" on the 2019 that has taken the place of the "hump" on earlier models (which I see so many riders have removed). I have not been able to install it, but I also think I'm handy enough to add some cushioning if I need to to make the dip area disappear and be just forward of where my bottom will probably like to be on the machine. Suzy was great and the cover looks hot. Had it done in silver beading and thread color to pick up the silver accent pieces on the body of the PCX. I think I have posted a pic okay with my post today.

Wow - That looks great! I hope it does the job for you, and I (we all) wait with baited breath to see it on the scoot.

Hope you get it soon. The bait doesn't taste so good.....
On my scoot, getting there is WAY more than half the fun!

All the best.

And welcome aboard. :D

Hi Riders,

As promised, here are pics of my 2019 PCX and the Cheeky seat cover installed. I'm a tall rider, 6'2" so I like to sit back on the seat just where the dip and the passenger section meet (or where the hump was on earlier models). I could slide back on the seat on my Yammy Zuma 50 with ease. But I traded it in for the PCX. And while the Cheeky seat for the 2019 model comes with some sewn-in padding over the dip area, I decided to add a little more padding (see picture) I had from a former purpose, after riding on the "stock" seat/padding a while. I am still tweaking the position and shape of my extra padding, but I like what it is doing overall. I can ride in the right spot with good leg room, good grasp of the handlebars, and comfort over the former "dip/hump" area. I sit a little higher on the bike, of course, but with my height it is just right for me to hold the bike up at stops, etc.

Thanks,

Heathergirl

Looks excellent, and your extra padding fix to smooth out the transition will work well too. Maybe add another, smaller diameter pad in the "deep" part of the transition would smooth it out even more. I saw some gel pad sort of stuff at Bed Bath and Beyond that looked like it would be just the ticket to go under the seat cover.

The Admiral and I had gel pads put into our custom seat, and they are quite nice.

Slight off topic question.

What years have inter-changeable seats?
