My helmet does not fit under either, but I have gotten quite comfortable using the wire loop that Honda provides to attach the helmet to the hook at the front of the storage compartment. Yes, I need to put a plastic bag over the helmet if rain is expected, but using the loop is not that inconvenient. In fact, I now prefer that I have storage that I can use instead of a big hole that I have to "save" for my helmet.

I also made a longer wire so that I can attach two helmets to the scoot when the Admiral comes along for a ride.
On my scoot, getting there is WAY more than half the fun!

but please, don't delete anybody, no matter how badly they deserve deleting :)

If you order the seat you linked from Powerbypcx I'm sure you'll get what you are expecting. I haven't seen anyone have an issue with that vendor.
Thanks for the feedback.

I ordered the one I posted a photo of on page 1 this morning.

I'm one of those guys. Got mine from a dealer on the north side ( 76th and good hope ) as they had the best out the door price for my new-leftover black 2013. http://www.hondapcx.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3671

I added a Bad Boy horn under the console hood (under that black hood that shades the instrument panel) by stuffing it in with a lot of effort. Then i tie wrapped it in place and ran the wires back to the center console area where the gas cap is. I had to install a relay because the little wires to the original horn won't carry the load. I kept the original horn connected and tapped the relay into those wires. The Bad Boy is an air horn so it takes a second to spool up. Thus, the original horn kicks in just before the air horn. Oh, run the main wires for the air horn directly to the battery, while using the relay connection to make it so that the horn will only work when the key is on. The instructions are fairly easy to follow. I got the Bad Boy at Harbor Freight. It does the job of alerting people that you are there, though some people could care less anyway.
Is there actually enough room to get an airhorn under that black wind-channeler (my name for it)? I was going to try to cram it under the left front faring after removing the stock horn.
