Fireball Seat

Post by Guff »

Does anyone know if a fireball seat will fit a 4t Stella?

I do not believe it will, the 4T has a raised gas tank which means the seat needs to have a larger indentation in the underside to accommodate it.

You may be able to put a Rally 200 seat on the bike.

Did the Rally have an elevated tank?

I know my PX seat (springy and more comfy than stock Stella) won't. It's not the cavity but the cross-brace supports. It might fit if I pulled those off, moved them back 6 inches or so, welded them back on, then ripped out the evap system. Not that I've given that much consideration. :)

Yes, the Rally 200 has an evevated tank. I think they hold 8.2L of fuel compared to the 8L of a PX/Stella tank.
At what point does a hobby become an addiction? I'm uncertain, but after the twelfth scooter, it sorta feels like the latter...

Seriously...I've lost count...

Seven mopeds ...that's still manageable...

Yankee seats like this one fit.

These seats have a little hidden compartment underneath,if you remove the door of the compartment it makes space for the raised tank.
