All scooters should have the seat opening switch as close to that latching mechanism at the rear of the seat as possible.
Why do so many scooter manufacturers insist on putting the seat opening mechanism miles from the seat latch, on a lengthy cable that runs from the front to the rear of the scooter! Far too many things can and do, go wrong with this system.
I rarely want to reach forward to the handlebars and operate the clever vanity seat switch while I'm in the saddle!
Kymco puts the key lock for the seat opener on the side panel of their LIKE scooters. (white arrow)
But, really clever scoots would have you put the key directly into the seat latch!

Why would you want to open the seat, when you are sitting on it!!
