Custom seating

Post by Jhois1 »

Anyone order custom seating for your PCX?

I would like something like the pic below, but I don't know anything about this seller or anyone else that does custom seating. Has anyone heard of or used this site?

I had my seat lowered, re-foamed, and re-covered. See the thread "seat uncovered" on this site to see the process step by step.

I have learned from my mistakes, and I am sure I can repeat them exactly.

Jhois1, The seat coloring is very nice but it appears to be shiny = like slippery? Do you want to slide forward when stopping or even backward at takeoff? Maybe give that a thought? Personally I hate sliding forward. It happens to me now/then on my stock seat, just enough to "have to" pick my bum up and pocket it again. With a bad lower back, that = Pain.
Good luck with you color scheme! Wheel stripes, mirrors, seat? Anxious to See the final project...."BeeMaster" ;) :P 8)

WhiteNoise - I hear you. I definitely do not want to be sliding around. I showed that pic above as it was the only Black/Yellow combo I could find :o

I have looked at the site mentioned above and those look very nice. However, I haven't heard back if they would customize with yellow stitching in place of the red on a couple of the models. I am hoping so :D

Has anyone had any luck, or "know of a guy" that does any customizing. Actually I still need to look into the thread mentioned earlier by Indyglow also!
