More pictures of Don's LIKE seat FIX
« on: August 14, 2013, 09:29:25 PM »
A couple more pictures of Don's professionally ulpholstered LIKE 200i seat.
I think it looks great - however I wonder if there is enough new padding added to fix the issue which  heavier riders have with the LIKE seat.
Don, you're a fly-weight compared to some of us guys! (imagine this seat with a 90lb bag of sacrete in your lap)
Darn pretty scooter!

Stig - he bases foam thickness on the rider's weight and can layer it as thick as needed. Too soft is just as tiring as too firm, so it's important for him to find the balance.

Nice job Don.  No chance your guy is any where near the Philadelphia area?  Your seat is how I sketched my "idea" to "my guy" a year ago...but alas, the end result was lost in translation and I sold that seat back to my dealer for another stock.  "Like" everyone else...project#1 this winter will be to address this issue if I decide to keep the Like 200i.  (I have has some pretty good offers on it...mulling over what to do in the off season, but a nice restore Cafe Racer has been on my bucket list for some time).

Great looking scoot/seat though.  Good luck with her and be safe out there.
