Possibly looking to replace my seat with a humpless seat. Any sources in the US? Michigan pot holes can make my @$$ hit the hump in a bad way!

You did not say what bike you have. Some people are going to a local upholstery shop. That seems to run about 150 dollars.

Aside from going to a local upholstery shop, I think your options are limited. Most of the accessories for the PCX are made in Thailand where the scooter is manufactured. I looked at several websites that sell parts but the choices are limited, and every one of them seems to come out of Thailand. If you really want to get a good choice of seats, go to powerbypcx and find the one you want. If you use the Chrome browser it will translate it for you. If you need help with it just ask on this forum. Many of us have purchased from there.

Or if you don't mind waiting a while. The 2015 pcx has a humpless seat. That should be out in a couple months. Not sure if it will fit earlier models. Maybe your honda dealer can find out.

Tried to make the seat purchase from PoweredbyPCX and everything was going well until I tried to select the paypal icon and that was as far as it would go. Wished it would have worked. Any suggestions?

May have just been a glitch. Try again later. I bet it works.

I have purchased many things from powerbypcx, and I have always used PayPal. I am pretty sure you had a glitch when you tried. If not, try a different browser after figuring out what they are saying in Chrome.

Finally got our humpless seats ordered from PoweredbyPCX! Can wait to get them. My Husband had too correspond through e-mail to find out what our problem was with the website. Looks our issue is we don’t know French very well. Lol!

Did your order your seat by using Google Chrome? I did and it automatically translated the site into English for me.Steph wrote:Finally got our humpless seats ordered from PoweredbyPCX!

Good question Slickvic, My husband made the order at 2am in the morning. I was in la la land. Did you get the humpless seat too?

Yes I have the exact same seat that Chucktuna has.
See my post here:
http://hondapcx.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1121
It cost of total of $172 with shipping being the majority of the bill.
It's a big improvement over the stock seat. At 6'-2" I can stretch back onto the passenger portion and rest my feet on the angled footboards when cruising.
P.S. Reading my old posting about ordering the seat, another person had the same exact problem you had. They also used Internet Exploder. See below:

I can add the seat I want to my cart and when I try to check out via Pay pal that's about as far as I get. Click on Pay Pal and nothing. Also it keeps switching back to French which makes it tough. Any tips would be welcomed..

Here is the humpless seat I installed. I can't sit as far back as you can on yours (I am 6'1" - 1.85 meters) but it sure is comfortable. Maddiedog has a similar type seat and loves it as well.

Kramnala58, That seat is sweet. But, I went with Chucktuna'a seat except I got the black stitching. Your scoot is really cool too! I love white. Not offered when we bought our scoots. Will be offered shortly. too late for us. Did you make a U tube video on the 2015 PCX? I watched that. Must be great living in Thailand.
