While there, check out their other related products too, geez.....this stuff looks battle ready!

I think I'd just stop and buy petrol. Or use a £4 plastic can

Want a Fun custom seat cover available in different patterns and fabrics? Contact
Suzy at : http://scooterseatcovers.net/
also referred to/known as: CheekySeats. Located in the U.S. (PA)

I did Not see a PCX cover represented for years 2014, 2015 or 2016, just yrs. 2010-2013.
But, Hold on! :P they aim to please, so ask. They're open to new ideas on fabrics/patterns and also scooter seats not listed......So don't hesitate to ask about your PCX ;)

To contact them: http://scooterseatcovers.net/index.php? ... contact_us

How do you like this cover idea? Kinda cool to switch out covers to fancy your mood. I'm thinking it's clever and a bit tempting (& Not permanent/or stapled).

:D You out there Alibally? this idea is along the lines of a seat cover that you posted (& I liked), it was leather (stapled on) and seller in UK off Ebay : http://www.ebay.co.uk/Tim/390641289696

I quite liked the vinyl carbon effect cover as not sure leather would work in wet and windy Scotland.
I modified the hump as a temporary measure by unpicking the cover and cutting away some of the plastic base to make it more crescent shaped. I cut the vinyl back and re stapled it . Not perfect but it gives an inch or so more room. You know what they say. An extra inch makes all the difference. :)

I checked out their website but they don't have the PCX listed on the website yet. You might have to contact them on the phone directly.

When I compare parts I have purchased I find these guys over 15% cheaper. Shipping similar.

Location in Pennsylvania
Came across another seat cover website http://scooterseatcovers.net/index.php? ... =page&id=2
Tell them your scoot and year, pick material and color. Have them make one. The 2015 is Not listed but the earlier PCX models are. They claim they will work with you, just ask away.
Another idea brought to you by Google & thrown into the mix :D have Fun!

Chief says...

Don't forget to cross reference everything you want with the super nets like Amazon before you pay too much. They have items you wouldn't expect like NCY rollers for your vario. And practically new garments and apparel like riding jackets are listed on Craigslist and other classifieds.

COLLECTING LINKS HERE !!

(I believe member homie has a running list as well, but more Amazon related. I'm right with him,....
Amazon is like an addiction :lol: I'm such a Fan! So don't forget about comparison shopping there (and remember to consider shipping costs and travel time) :? Gosh it sounds like I'm scheduling a Flight somewhere :lol: AnyWho...

Are you pleased with your purchase(s)? Would you be kind enough to share with us your find and shopping link? If so, Please add their website in this ongoing thread.

@ jblye,
I hope you don't mind Johnny that I'm adding your Windscreen "Edging" link to this thread. It's not an item that many of us know about and it might interest them.
Hmm, I don't think I can attach your immediate blog page re: the Micro Swirl Edging. Would you be kind enough to help with that please? Thank you sir (in advance) :)

Website link to Micro Swirl Edging: https://www.saeng.com/category.php?category=80
