Re: Will the Shoei Neotec fit under the PCX seat?

my Xl Bell fullface helmet just fits under the seat, fairly tight though. i usually keep the helmet bag under there as well and put the helmet in that to protect it.

Re: What seat do you have?

I've got a seat from these guys through powerbypcx and it doesn't fit my helmet under it. I have a fullface XL Bell helmet and it would just fit under the original seat.

Re: new aussie pcx150 owner

the seat is from powerbypcx in thailand, it looks awesome and is very confortable. unfortunately it uses a different base to the factory seat so my helmet doesn't fit under the seat anymore. :(
