Newbie from Gloucestershire
I posted a picture in the gallery and I have now re-covered my seat and I am currently doing another one I bought on ebay. It is a 2011 scooter and I really didn't like the hump!

Re: Newbie from Gloucestershire
Your bike looks brand new....really nice shape
I also hated the hump, so I recently bought a Cheeky Seat cover which is working out well

Re: Newbie from Gloucestershire
Thanks, its only covered 1700 miles from new. I can now sit well back on the seat and it helps with the rear shocks as well, I have noticed.

On my 2014 model the "hump" was only held in place by 2 bolts. With that removed it's left a couple of holes - I keep meaning to visit a vinyl repair outfit and get a couple of circular patches put over them.

Builders foam to fill them was a good idea.TheMaverick wrote:On my 2014 model the "hump" was only held in place by 2 bolts. With that removed it's left a couple of holes - I keep meaning to visit a vinyl repair outfit and get a couple of circular patches put over them.

Re: Newbie from Gloucestershire
Probably the best patches are from a camping shop to repair air beds. They are quite large and round and do come in black but its still a bit Naff! Does mean you can sit back a bit though.

Welcome Arn!
I saw your job on the seat in the other thread; nicely-done!
What does 'naff' mean? Yankee English doesn't have that word...

N.A.F.F is a very rude term. Naff off is the same as bugger off. Naff on its own kind of means a bit cringingly awkward but not too much.
A ride red wall clock for example is a bit naff
