That looks like a really nice saddle Ole, and a nice surprise on a day you that you feel like crap. Bet you get it mounted up this weekend :D Temptation strikes, so hard to resist. Feel better ;)

I got it fitted. It fit perfect after some modification. The U shaped catching bracket on the new seat had a little too much shim on the back side. I reversed the washers and it fits like it is supposed to. Pleased.

Would love to see a side by side comparison in pictures, please show us how this seats you different than stock. Here is the link but we have no idea what it says about the product or how its better. If it seats you back further than stock 2015 models and fits 2015 models plus gets shipped that fast then this is indeed a good deal!

But I don't want a stick with no carrot :lol:

I have no idea what any of it says, even the Google translator doesnt translate it all,
I need that Seat for the 2013 model :-( cant find a contact email either.

I'm satisfied its not available for 2015 just by the way things are categorized. Rather a fit for your bike JoJo... a solution seat for the hump. Which makes it very desirable to humpers 8)

Nothing like resurrecting a dead thread :-)

Bought my PCX150 yesterday. (due to some logistical issues*, I don't have my bike home yet). Bought the seat today! I'm a larger person (6'2"), god I love that scooter and it's smooth and fast as all hell - but man, what a dumb dumb DUMB seat. But when I found out I could order this one, I went and bought the bike knowing I could change it out easily. I'm stoked, this is a really really nice comfy-looking seat!

Doing the french-english thing via Chrome's translate is pretty interesting, but it seems to have worked and it should be on its way!

Interesting, looks like the value of the Euro has dropped some; total cost for me was $142 US.

I will review how the shipping went and how it works for me when it comes.

There are several really nice places to buy replacement seats for the pcx, though i understand that the newest version of pcx has a much better seat. I don't believe the seats are interchangeable between the 2013 and the 2014/2015 models.

Correct. The 2015 has a different seat. I'm actually happy that I just bought a '13 - LOTS of stuff available for this model, looks like the 2015 parts and such will be coming, but there's not a whole lot out there just yet.....

The '15 model may have a different seat but it's still the worst, most uncomfortable bike seat I've ever had on any of my bikes, even including the rather minimal 2 inch saddle on my current ride (BMW R nineT).

I rode my new PCX 150 home from the dealer last Saturday and took the very long way so did just under 100km by the time I got home - and my back and bum were absolutely killing me.

I don't mean to be "funny" here but I believe this seat has been designed for the (typically) smaller Asian posterior so I find the top of the riders seat hump digs into my lower back and since you can't slide back on it locks you in one position. And I'm not even tall at 170cm - it must be murder if you're tall!

So, one guess what's first on my list of mods! I do like the look of the seat posted above so I may go for one of those, but I am almost 100% sold on this one, posted on another thread: http://www.powerbypcx.com/achat-selle-h ... 99932.html

They both cost a lot when you take into account P&P so I am very disappointed the stock seat is so bad.... hadn't planned on having to spend upwards of another AUD $200 on a seat when I bought my bike!
