| Anybody has this cover? Was looking for a replacement seat, used or new but most are crazy expensive plus shipping. Saw this and read some good reviews so trying it out. It doesn't really take the shape of the seat but stretches tight and hugs the seat to take the shape but not the crevices of the backrest of the driver and passenger humps. Material is not soft you can sort of see in the picture but don't know what it's made of. |

| This is without the driver backrest... This is how it's mounted under the seat... The problem is that the material is thick and the latch that locks and holds the seat can't close and grab without my weight and force to latch it to close it, then the center latch won't let go unless you press where the center latch is then turn the key to unlatch it. |

So now you have an idea of what the product looks like close up and how it installs what do you think about it now I rode down the road and I can feel a little sliding side to side when turning and front to back while take off and stopping Maybe it’s gotta settle and break in over time |

| Got mine and tried it… Not a fan. Comfy to sit on but to much under the seat to close properly as Wing808 stated, and it’s kind of rough against the paint … I did like the feel and that it lifted me up a little bit but didn’t like the fit and what it did to the seat. If I was at all crafty it could be cut down and installed properly and could be nice. But as is is bunched up to much under the seat for me. I do think the on a bolt down seat like a motorcycle it would be nice to sit on….

| Hope you get to sell the cover.... One reason I got the cover was to hide my damaged seat till I find a replacement seat which is hard to find in a used but OEM condition. I also noticed it does make me sit a little higher but I do have a short inseam . It will suffice till then, who knows I might end up having never finding a replacement seat, new is just to costly for a 2005 Swing. |
