Got My Xciting 250Ri!!!!

[orettes]

Greetings

 I finally got my Xciting 250. First impression-- sharp looking. Ride; fun has pep and handles well.

A couple of questions:
After how long should the brake levers be adjusted. At the begining they were pretty "tight" now they have some "slop"

Break in: any thoughts on breaking in the scooter?

The seat,  well for me it sucks, my ass hurts. I travel 17 miles each way to work and my butt is killing me. I am 270 pounds and I have some cushion on my butt. I have heard that the 2007 Xciting 250 has a thicker seat, is that true and could I swap the 2009 seat with the 2007 seat?? If not does anyone know of any after market products that might help?

What sites have after market products for the 2009 Xciting 250Ri?

Thanks

Get one of those 18$ gel seat cushions at Walmart. I used one on a 1200+Mile trip on an Exciting 250.

Really? What do you do just place it on and sit down?
I will try that out
Thanks

I would raise the backrest a bit and secure the back with it and I yeah I would just sit on it. When riding it never moved around and you can just throw it in the under the seat compartment when you get to where you are going.
It fit the 06 like it was made for it, not sure how much the 08 seat has changed. You could probably find a way to fasten it if you needed.
